Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), an NAD+-dependent deacetylase, is a key regulator of cellular metabolism. Recent genome-wide association studies identified genetic variants SIRT1 linked to major depressive disorders. widely expressed in the brain; however, neuronal substrates that mediate action on behaviors remain largely unknown. Here we show selective deletion forebrain excitatory neurons causes depression-like phenotypes male but not female mice. AAV-Cre-mediated knockdown medial prefrontal cortex...
