Abstract
⺠Increased HPA-axis activity in depression may depend on hippocampal GR levels. ⺠GR-immunoreactivity correlated positively with age in postmortem brain of depressives. ⺠Hippocampal GR-immunoreactivity was increased in females, not males, with depression. ⺠The sex difference in GR may relate to the increased incidence of depression in women.
