Abstract
We assessed whether cytokine production-interleukin (IL)-1 beta, IL-6 and t umour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF alpha)-is affected in depressed patients, dysthymia (Dt) and major depression (MD), and its association with various parameters of severity and clinical course. We found a possible different p attern of interleukin production between Dt and MD. (C) 2001 Editions scien tifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS.
