Introduction: Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a prevalent, complex condition with an unclear pathophysiology. Studies have shown structural and cellular changes in the hippocampus and reduced synaptic density in the prefrontal cortex of depressed individuals (Kang HJ et al. Nature Medicine 2012;18(9):1413-1417). Additionally, impaired mitochondrial function has been linked to susceptibility to mental health disorders.Objectives: This study aimed to examine synaptic and mitochondrial characteristics in post-mortem hippocampal tissues, specifically in individuals with MDD.Methods: The three s
