Abstract:
Adolescent depression has a high prevalence, atypical symptoms, and poor prognosis. Cytokines, as related to the inflammation hypothesis, which is one of the potential pathogenesis of depressive disorder and thus crucial in adolescent patients who are in the early stage of the disease, have received widespread attention. Based on the current research status, this commentary briefly discusses the research on cytokines related to adolescent depression to elucidate the value of cytokines in the clinical practice of adolescent depression.
