Abstract

No studies have directly examined the influence of commonly-occurring everyday psychosocial stressors on microvascular adrenergic vasoconstrictor responsiveness in adults with symptomatic major depressive disorder (MDD). We hypothesized that 1) increased stressor exposure would be positively related to increased norepinephrine (NE)-induced vasoconstriction and 2) the slope of this relation would be steeper in adults in with MDD compared to non-depressed adults.
