Handb Clin Neurol . 2014 Sep; 124:69-91. PMID: 25248580
Since the 1960s, both corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis have been studied in detail across a range of psychiatric illnesses, leading to important contributions to our knowledge...

Mod Trends Pharmacopsychiatry . 2014 Sep; 28:90-9. PMID: 25224893
The brain-gut axis provides a bidirectional means of communication between the microbiota within the gut and the brain. Stress acting via the brain can result in alteration of the microbial...

Dinan T, Clarke G, Quigley E, Scott L, Shanahan F, Cryan J, et al.
Am J Gastroenterol . 2008 Sep; 103(10):2570-6. PMID: 18785949
Objectives: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional disorder, which has recently been linked to immune activation. We tested the hypothesis that the pro-inflammatory cytokine profile in IBS is driven...

OBrien S, Fitzgerald P, Scully P, Landers A, Scott L, Dinan T
Neuroimmunomodulation . 2007 Aug; 14(2):84-90. PMID: 17713355
Objective: The lifetime prevalence of major depression is twice as high in females as in males. Depression is known to increase at periods where there are changes in gonadal hormones....

J Psychiatr Res . 2006 Jul; 41(3-4):326-31. PMID: 16870211
Objective: Approximately 30% of patients with depression fail to respond to a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). Few studies have attempted to define these patients from a biological perspective. Studies...

OBrien S, Scott L, Dinan T
Br J Psychiatry . 2006 May; 188:449-52. PMID: 16648531
Background: Major depression is associated with activation of the inflammatory response. Aims: To examine C-reactive protein levels in depression and to determine the impact of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI)...

J Affect Disord . 2006 Jan; 90(2-3):263-7. PMID: 16410025
Background: The role of the immune system in mood disorders is predominately supported by studies in unipolar major depression. However activation of the immune system has also been demonstrated in...

Psychol Med . 2005 Nov; 36(1):37-43. PMID: 16255837
Background: There is evidence to indicate that peripheral glucocorticoid receptor (GR) function is reduced in major depression, and a possible molecular explanation for this is the impact of raised pro-inflammatory...

Dinan T, Scott L
J Anat . 2005 Sep; 207(3):259-64. PMID: 16185250
Overactivity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis characterized by hypercortisolism, adrenal hyperplasia and abnormalities in negative feedback is the most consistently described biological abnormality in melancholic depression. Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and...

Hum Psychopharmacol . 2004 Aug; 19(6):397-403. PMID: 15303243
The role of cytokines in depression was first considered when the cytokine interferon resulted in "sickness behaviour", the symptoms of which are similar to those of major depression. The latter...
