Psychiatric disorders are one of the most dramatic burdens for
humankind. The role of immune dysfunction in the pathophysiology of
these disorders has emerged during the last years, because there
has been tremendous progress in psychoneuroimmunological research.
Many results are presented here by pioneers in the field. The book
addresses various effects of the immune system on the
pathophysiology and course of psychiatric disorders and highlights
the possible future impact on treatment decisions of various
psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia and depression. The
contributions cover the role of in utero immune challenges on the
development of schizophrenia, the role of infections, and
autoimmune diseases and mild immune activation in the development
of depression and schizophrenia, the influence of immune responses
in other disorders such as Tourette's, Alzheimer's, and OCD, the
connections between mental and physical pain as well as between
anti-inflammatory and antipsychotic drugs.
