Approaching the shared biology of obesity and depression: the stress axis as the locus of gene-environment interactions.

Molecular psychiatry - 1 Oct 2006

Bornstein S R, Schuppenies A, Wong M-L, Licinio J

Abstract excerpt

Obesity and depression are serious public health problems and also constitute cardiovascular disease risk factors. Research organizations have called for efforts to explore the interrelationship between obesity and depression. A useful starting point is the fact that in both disorders there is dysregulation of stress systems. We review molecular and clinical evidence indicating that the mediators of the stress...
