Title
Epigenetic Effect of Chronic Stress on Dopamine Signaling and Depression
Abstract
Because of the complex causal factors leading to depression, epigenetics is of considerable interest for the understanding effect of stress in depression.

These factors lead many drugs to target Dopamine receptors in treating depressive disorders. In this review, we try to portray how chronic stress as an epigenetic factor changes the gene regulation pattern by interrupting Dopamine signaling mechanism.
