Article Synopsis
- Depression is a widespread mental health disorder characterized by symptoms like persistent sadness, loss of interest, increased anxiety, sleep disturbances, and cognitive issues, but its exact causes are still unclear.
- Research indicates that inflammatory cytokines, especially tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukins (ILs), may play significant roles in both the development and treatment of depression, with elevated levels found in depressed patients.
- TNF-α inhibitors, such as etanercept and infliximab, are being studied as promising new treatments for depression, with evidence from animal models and clinical studies showing they can reduce depressive symptoms and improve mood.
