Journal Article

Human monocytes and macrophages express substance P and neurokinin-1 receptor.

TL;DR: The demonstration that human monocytes and macrophages express substance P and its receptor support the notion that substance P is biologically involved in regulating the functions of these cells in an autocrine fashion.

Depressive and anxiety disorders in women with HIV infection

TL;DR: HIV-seropositive women without current substance abuse exhibited a significantly higher rate of major depressive disorder and more symptoms of depression and anxiety than did a group of HIV-seronegative women with similar demographic characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leukocytosis and natural killer cell function parallel neurobehavioral fatigue induced by 64 hours of sleep deprivation.

TL;DR: The physiologic leukocytosis and NK activity increases during deprivation were eliminated by recovery sleep in a manner parallel to neurobehavioral function, suggesting that the immune alterations may be associated with biological pressure for sleep.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of depression with viral load, CD8 T lymphocytes, and natural killer cells in women with HIV infection.

TL;DR: Findings provide the first evidence that depression may alter the function of killer lymphocytes in HIV-infected women and suggest that depression might decrease natural killer cell activity and lead to an increase in activated CD8 T lymphocytes and viral load.
