Depression and Coronary Artery Atherosclerosis and Reactivity in Female Cynomolgus Monkeys
Objective Depression and coronary heart disease (CHD) are comorbid conditions, and it is thought that depression may increase the risk of CHD. However, the evidence for the latter relationship is sparse and difficult to collect. Cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis) have been used effectively as animal models of CHD risk and depression. Here we report the results of a comparison of physiological characteristics, coronary artery reactivity, and…
Psychosocial Factors, Sex Differences, and Atherosclerosis
OBJECTIVE: Premenopausal women, compared with men, are relatively spared from coronary heart disease and the underlying atherosclerosis. Our purpose has been to elucidate the reason for this difference and to explore the role of behavioral factors in this phenomenon. METHODS: Studies employed socially housed cynomolgus macaques (Macaca fascicularis) fed an atherogenic diet and subjected to behavioral observations. Ovariectomy, with or without hor…
The Pathogenicity of Behavior and Its Neuroendocrine Mediation
Although it is frequently hypothesized that perturbations of the body's principal axes of neuroendocrine response, especially the sympathetic-adrenomedullary and pituitary-adrenocortical systems, mediate psychosocial influences on disease, evidence directly supporting this hypothesis is sparse at best and, for most disease entities, nonexistent. In this article, we illustrate a research strategy aimed at elucidating the role of behavior in diseas…
