Chronic Stress Associated With Spousal Caregiving of Patients With Alzheimer's Dementia Is Associated With Downregulation of B-Lymphocyte GH mRNA

1 Apr 1999

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: It has been demonstrated that growth hormone (GH) is synthesized and secreted by human peripheral mononuclear cells (PBMC), and the expression of GH mRNA can be found throughout the human immune system. METHODS: We studied a population of female caregivers of patients with Alzheimer's dementia (AD) who suffered from the stress of caring for these patients. We utilized quantitative RT-PCR to determine...
