Sub-anesthetic doses of ketamine exert antidepressant-like effects and upregulate the expression of glutamate transporters in the hippocampus of rats

This animal study (n=72) investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying the antidepressant efficacy of ketamine (10, 25, and 50 mg/kg) and found that it may be partially attributed to the upregulation of excitatory amino acid transporters (EAATs) which enhance the reuptake of extracellular glutamate in the hippocampus of depressive-like rats.

Effects of varied doses of psilocybin on time interval reproduction in human subjects

This double-blind, placebo-controlled, within-subjects study (n=21) investigated the effects of psilocybin (0.84, 8.05, & 17.5mg/70kg) on time perception and found that it increased the loss rate of internal time representation even within the microdose range. This may indicate psilocybin's subjective effects, such as the experience of ‘time standing still'.
