Review

Noteworthy comment: The search for effective but safe anti-depressant drugs continues in parallel with studies of dietary influences and the use of lifestyle factors such as exercise. In this short review Rodrigues and colleagues summarise key findings on these topics and draw together the evidence that they may act via a common pathway known as mTOR (mammalian Target Of Rapamycin). A more intensive investigation into this target could yield the more selective and useful drugs that are urgently needed
