Screening for inflammatory and neurodegenerative processes in depression will allow to discover new I&ND biomarkers, both at the level of gene expression and the phenotype, and elucidate the underlying molecular I &ND pathways causing depression; identify new therapeutic targets in the I& ND pathways; develop new anti-I&ND drugs for these targets; and select existingAnti-I &ND drugs or substances that could augment the efficacy of antidepressants.
