✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Objective

Previous research has revealed cognitive deficits in patients with anorexia nervosa. It is unclear whether these deficits are linked to co‐morbid depression in this population. We examined the relationship between depressive symptoms and cognitive functioning.

Method

A large sample of subjects (N = 98) was examined using a common measure of cognitive ability and two measures of depression.

Results

We confirmed that there is no relationship between depression and cognitive ability in this group.

Discussion

This suggests that alternative explanations be explored for cognitive deficits in patients with anorexia nervosa. © 2003 by Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Eat Disord 33: 351–355, 2003.

Synthesis, processing and sorting of pro-cathepsin D (proCD), the precursor of a lysosomal protease involved in tumor-cell proliferation and invasion, were compared in various human tumor cell lines. In cultures of HepG2, HT29 and MCF7 cells the extracellular CD activity was up to 10 times higher th
