“…The increased resistance to therapy in these circumstances may be related to the additional load of inflammatory mediators. Conversely, the increased prevalence of depression in RA and its amelioration with anti-TNF therapy may simply reflect the ability of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-alpha to induce depression and sickness [51,65]. Relief from depression when RA is in remission may be a direct effect of therapy on the biology of depression, at least as much as an indirect effect through improvement in the symptoms of RA and its impact on the patient's ability to enjoy life.…”

“…Szoros kapcsolat mutatkozik a neuroticizmus és a személyiségzavarok között is [10]. Egy jelentős tanulmány megállapítja, hogy a neuroticizmus mutatói különösen a határeseti ("borderline"), az elkerülő és a dependens személyiségzavarral mutatnak szoros kapcsolatot [11].…”

“…Depression in older people is associated with increased exposure to cytomegalovirus in the past and a pro-inflammatory profile demonstrated by elevated TNF, IL-6, IFN, C-reactive protein and deficiency of suppressive IL-10+cells. These changes negatively affect humoral and innate responses in depressed patients (Penninx et al, 2003;Bouhuys et al, 2004;Trzonkowski et al, 2004;Irwin & Miller, 2007). IL-6 and TNF have the capacity to exert direct effects on the central nervous system by stimulating the hypothalamic-pituitary axis activity and the release of corticotrophin-releasing factor.…”

“…These direct effects may lead to behavioural and neurochemical changes that may induce depression (Penninx et al, 2003). Depression has been associated with a decreased number of lymphocytes and NK and altered functions, which can be modulated by antidepressant treatment (Bouhuys et al, 2004;Irwin & Miller, 2007). Antidepressant therapy decreases LPS-induced IL-1 and IL-6 in whole blood from depressed patients.…”
