TL;DR: The results indicate that several taxa at the family and genus levels, specifically family Prevotellaceae, genus Corprococcus, and Faecalibacterium, were decreased in MDD compared to non-depressed controls in observational studies, and depressive symptoms were improved compared to controls in interventional studies with probiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results suggest that MBIs might have some beneficial effect on cortisol secretion in healthy adult subjects, however, there is a need for further RCTs implemented in accordance with standard programmes and measurements of salivary cortisol under rigorous strategies inhealthy adult populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Peripheral Inflammatory Parameters in Late-Life Depression: A Systematic Review
Mónica Martínez-Cengotitabengoa,Lucía Carrascón,John T. O'Brien,María-José Díaz-Gutiérrez,C. Bermúdez-Ampudia,Kenji Sanada,Marta Arrasate,Ana González-Pinto +7 more
TL;DR: Proinflammatory cytokines seem to be associated with the future development of clinically significant depression, irrespective of baseline scores, thus indicating that inflammation temporally precedes and increases depression risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of mindfulness-based interventions on biomarkers in healthy and cancer populations: a systematic review
Kenji Sanada,Kenji Sanada,Marta Alda Díez,Marta Alda Díez,Montserrat Salas Valero,María C. Pérez-Yus,María C. Pérez-Yus,Marcelo Marcos Piva Demarzo,Marcelo Marcos Piva Demarzo,Jesus Montero-Marin,Mauro García-Toro,Javier García-Campayo,Javier García-Campayo +12 more
TL;DR: MBIs may be involved in changes from a depressive/carcinogenic profile to a more normalized one, and additional randomized controlled trials are needed to further establish the impact of MBI programmes on biomarkers in both clinical and non-clinical populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Mindfulness-Based Interventions on Biomarkers and Low-Grade Inflammation in Patients with Psychiatric Disorders: A Meta-Analytic Review

TL;DR: MBIs showed significant improvements in the event-related potential amplitudes in attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, the methylation of serotonin transporter genes in post-traumatic stress disorder, and the salivary levels of interleukin 6 in depression.
