Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>High and low senescent CD8 T cells (either determined by CD28 negativity or<br /><br>CD57 positivity), i.e. higher or lower than the mean of the senescent CD8+ T<br /><br>cells in the total depression group at base-line. Response to treatment will be<br /><br>analysed via HDRS-17 score improvement and responders and non-responders will<br /><br>be defined via the 50% improvement in HDRS-17 score</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Other immune senescence markers<br /><br>1. High and low number of *senescent* CD4+ T cells in the effector<br /><br>memory (EM) and effector memory re-expressing CD45RA (EMRA) populations<br /><br>2. High and low signs of monocyte senescence: Monocyte gene expression<br /><br>of mitochondrial apoptosis (BAX, BCL10, EGR1, EGR2) and the SASP related gene<br /><br>TNF<br /><br>3. High and low signs of the monocyte inflammatory pyroptosis state:<br /><br>Monocyte gene expression of the inflammatory genes IL-1A, IL-1B, IL-6, CCL20<br /><br>and TNFAIP3<br /><br>4. Correlates of high and low signs of the monocyte senescent and<br /><br>inflammatory state in whole blood material TEMPUS): The gene expression of<br /><br>amongst others BAX, SERPINE1, TGFBR3, NFATC2, TNFAIP3, FOXP3 and CD8<br /><br>5. High or low levels of the T cell senescence related growth serum<br /><br>factor IL-7<br /><br>6. High or low levels of the inflammaging serum factors hsCRP and IL-6</p><br>
