56、he brain,cytokines can disturb the production and release of several important signaling chemicals,including serotonin,dopamine and glutamate,which help control emotion,appetite,sleep,learning and memory.Its thought that a lack of serotonin activity in the brain causes depression;most antidepressant

57、s increase the activity.But cytokines also have been shown to activate stress hormone signaling in the brain,which may also serve to develop depression.With all the evidence implicating inflammation in depression,doctors have been anxious to test anti-inflammatory drugs as a potential treatment.Four

58、 small studies published between 2006 and 2017 by research groups in Europe and Iran found that adults diagnosed with depression who took aspirin or another anti-inflammatory drug called Celecoxib,along with an antidepressant,got more relief from feelings of sadness,hopelessness,guilt and fatigue co
