The incidence of depression and anxiety is amplified by obesity. Mounting
evidence reveals that the psychiatric consequences of obesity stem from poor
diet, inactivity, and visceral adipose accumulation. Resulting metabolic and
vascular dysfunction, including inflammation, insulin and leptin resistance, and
hypertension, have emerged as key risks to depression and anxiety development.
Recent research advancements are exposing the important contribution of these
different corollaries of obesity and their impact on neuroimmune status and the
neural circuits controlling mood and emotional states. Along these lines, this
review connects the clinical manifestations of depression and anxiety in obesity
to our current understanding of the origins and biology of immunometabolic
threats to central nervous system function and behavior.
