Journal ArticleDOI
No response of plasma substance P, but delayed increase of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist to acute psychosocial stress.
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of acute psychosocial stress on plasma levels of substance P (SP), a possible mediator of stress-induced inflammatory reactions, and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) were explored.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autonomic dysregulation in burnout and depression: evidence for the central role of exhaustion
Magdalena K. Kanthak,Tobias Stalder,LaBarron K. Hill,Julian F. Thayer,Marlene Penz,Clemens Kirschbaum +5 more
TL;DR: Evidence is presented for a link between exhaustion and reduced vagal function, both in burnout and depression, suggesting that ANS modulations may not be disorder-specific but rather a psychophysiological correlate of an underlying feature shared by both conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic influences on hormonal markers of chronic hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal function in human hair.
Elliot M. Tucker-Drob,Andrew D. Grotzinger,Daniel A. Briley,Laura E. Engelhardt,Frank D. Mann,Megan W. Patterson,Clemens Kirschbaum,Emma K. Adam,Jessica A. Church,Jennifer L. Tackett,Kathryn Paige Harden +10 more
TL;DR: Chronic glucocorticoid output appears to be more consistently related to biological sex, age and genotype than to experiential factors that cluster within nuclear families.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estradiol or estradiol/progesterone treatment in older women: no strong effects on cognition
TL;DR: This study does not support the notion that treatment with sex hormones has beneficial effects on cognition in older hysterectomized women, and suggests that the human brain might loose its responsiveness to gonadal steroids with aging or prolonged hormone depletion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cortisol patterns are associated with T cell activation in HIV.
Sarah L. Patterson,Patricia J. Moran,Elissa S. Epel,Elizabeth Sinclair,Margaret E. Kemeny,Steven G. Deeks,Peter Bacchetti,Michael Acree,Lorrie Epling,Clemens Kirschbaum,Frederick Hecht +10 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis contributes to the regulation of T cell activation in HIV and may represent an important pathway through which psychological states and the HPA axis influence progression of HIV.
