  • The Integration of Depressive Behaviors and Cardiac Dysfunction During an Operational Measure of Depression

    Angela J Grippo, Julia A Moffitt et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2012

    OBJECTIVE: There is a bidirectional association between depression and cardiovascular disease. The neurobiological mechanisms underlying this association may involve an inability to cope with disrupted social bonds. This study investigated in an animal model the integration of depressive behaviors and cardiac dysfunction after a disrupted social bond and during an operational measure of depression, relative to the protective effects of intact soc…

  • Evaluation of Baroreceptor Reflex Function in the Chronic Mild Stress Rodent Model of Depression

    Objective: There is a bidirectional relationship between mood disorders (e.g., depression) and altered cardiovascular regulation (e.g., heart disease); however, the precise causal and/or common mechanisms underlying this association are unclear. In previous studies, we have noted indications of altered sympathetic drive to the heart in rats that exhibit anhedonia, an operational sign of depression induced by subjecting the animals to a series of …
