Inflammation has invaded the field of psychiatry. The finding that
cytokines are elevated in various affective and psychotic disorders
brings to the forefront the necessity of identifying the precise
research domain criteria (RDoCs) that inflammation is responsible
for. This task is certainly the most advanced in major depressive
disorders. The reason is that a dearth of clinical and preclinical
studies has demonstrated that inflammation can cause symptoms of
depression and conversely, cytokine antagonists can attenuate
symptoms of depression in medical and psychiatric patients with
chronic low grade inflammation. Important knowledge has been gained
on the symptom dimensions that inflammation is driving and the
mechanisms of action of cytokines in the brain, providing new
targets for drug research and development. The aim of the book
"Inflammation-Associated Depression" is to present this field of
research and its implications in a didactic and comprehensive
manner to basic and clinical scientists, psychiatrists, physicians,
and students at the graduate level.
