Immunological response to stress in agoraphobia and panic attacks. 1986

O S Surman, and J Williams, and D V Sheehan, and T B Strom, and K J Jones, and J Coleman

The authors studied in vitro immune function as measured by lymphocytic proliferative response to mitogen stimulation in 36 patients with agoraphobia and panic attacks who were participating in a double-blind placebo-controlled psychopharmacological study of anxiety disorder. No significant difference in immune status was observed between panic patients and healthy controls.
