title: [Stress, depression and cerebral plasticity: an update of clinical and experimental findings].
abstract: Recent studies of neuroplasticity in stress and depression have given rise to new hypotheses on the neural bases of these disorders. Based on data from imaging studies, cellular and molecular biology, and animal models, this approach could help to understand certain clinical findings, and especially cognitive impairments. Some antidepressants have effects on neuroplasticity, in addition to their symptomatic effects on depression.
