Change in depression
The goal of this observational study is to measure the levels of cytokine-induced
 transcription factor activation in a cohort of depressed inpatients undergoing psychotherapy.
 The study aims to answer the following main questions:
 
 - Do psychological traits (i.e.: social inhibition, negative affectivity, ...) affect the
 activation of immunomodulatory transcription factors (STAT3, NFkB) in depressed
 patients?
 
 - Are subjects with these psychological traits affected differently by psychotherapeutic
 intervention?
 
 Study subjects are assessed for their psychological and behavioral traits and receive
 psychotherapeutic care over several weeks during hospital treatment. Peripheral blood
 mononuclear cells are isolated from the study subjects, and activation of transcription
 factors is measured by flow cytometry.
