This study looks at how a brain protein linked to Alzheimer’s disease changes over time in older adults who have major depression but no major memory problems. It involves brain scans, blood and urine tests, and a spinal fluid sample to better understand the connection between depression and brain aging.
This study looks at treatment response markers (signs in the body) in people with major depressive disorder (MDD). It may help researchers understand who is more likely to benefit from antidepressant treatment.
This early-stage study tests how your brain responds to an “inflammatory challenge” in people with major depressive disorder and in healthy volunteers. It may help researchers understand the immune-to-brain link in depression and guide future treatments.
This study checks whether tiny genetic signals in blood (microRNAs) are linked to childhood maltreatment and thoughts or risk of suicide, especially in people with major depression. It may help researchers understand biological clues that could someday guide better care.
This study looks at how stress affects teenage girls who may be at higher risk for depression due to a parent's history. It involves MRI scans and daily surveys on a cell phone.
This study looks at “biopsychosocial markers” (biological, psychological, and social signs) in people with major depression and/or anxiety. It aims to understand what changes with treatment and how those changes connect to symptoms like anxiety and depression.
