Abstract

The prediction of treatment response in many neuropsychiatric disorders would be facilitated by easily accessible biomarkers. Using flow cytometry, we herein demonstrate correlations between early reductions of p11 levels in Natural Killer (NK) cells and monocytes and antidepressant response to citalopram in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD).
