Acute hydrocortisone treatment increases anxiety but not fear in healthy volunteers: a fear-potentiated startle studyChristian Grillon
Mood and Anxiety Disorders Program, National Institute of Mental Health, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20892 2670, USA

Cardiac implications of increased arterial entry and reversible 24-h central and peripheral norepinephrine levels in melancholiaPhilip W Gold
Clinical Neuroendocrinology Branch, National Institute of Mental Health, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892 1284, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 102:8303-8. 2005..Even mildly-to-moderately depressed melancholic patients had clinically relevant increases in the arterial NE-appearance rate. These findings will not apply to all clinical subtypes of major depression...
Acute stress potentiates anxiety in humansChristian Grillon
Unit of Affective Psychophysiology, Intramural Research Program, National Institute of Mental Health, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20892 2670, USA
Biol Psychiatry 62:1183-6. 2007..Stress is an important factor in the development and maintenance of anxiety disorders. Stress also potentiates anxiety-like response in animals, but empirical evidence for a similar effect in humans is still lacking...

Department of Psychiatry, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, 5323 Harry Hines Boulevard, Dallas, TX 75390, USA
Biol Psychiatry 58:347-54. 2005..Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) alters both concentrations of neurotransmitters or their metabolites and functional activity of central nervous system regions dysregulated in mood disorders. An open trial has suggested efficacy...
