Specifically that patients with inflammatory diseases are more likely to have MDD,  a large number of people with major depression show inflammatory biomarkers, and patients treated with cytokines are at increased risk of developing depression. Also inflammatory mediators have been found to alter glutamate and monoamine neurotransmission, glucocorticoid receptor resistance and hippocampal neurogenesis. Also, inflammation is able to alter brain signalling patterns, to affect cognition.]]
