Abstrakt: Neuropsychiatric disorders present a global challenge to public health. Mechanisms associated with neuropsychiatric disorders etiology include apoptosis, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation. Tumor necrosis factor alpha, an inflammatory cytokine, mediates pathophysiology of neuropsychiatric disorders. Therefore, its inhibition by infliximab might afford a valuable target for intervention. Infliximab is commonly used to treat inflammatory diseases, including ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, and rheumatoid arthritis. Recently, it has been shown that infliximab improves cognitive dysfunction, depression, anxiety, and life quality. Here, we review contemporary knowledge supporting the need to further characterize infliximab as a potential treatment for neuropsychiatric disorders.
