Behavioral influences on the immune system: Stress and conditioning

open access: yesProgress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry, 1987
Several investigators have demonstrated that immune responses may be subject to classical conditioning processes. Conditioning effects in both cell-mediated and humoral immune responses have been reported. Strong evidence for behavioral effects on immune responses has been provided by studies of stress-induced immunosuppression.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Are Large Physiological Reactions to Acute Psychological Stress Always Bad for Health? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
How we react physiologically to stress has long been considered to have implications for our health. There is now persuasive evidence that individuals who show large cardiovascular reactions to stress are at increased risk of developing cardiovascular ...

Aggressive prostate cancer is associated with pericyte dysfunction

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumor‐produced TGF‐β drives pericyte dysfunction in prostate cancer. This dysfunction is characterized by downregulation of some canonical pericyte markers (i.e., DES, CSPG4, and ACTA2) while maintaining the expression of others (i.e., PDGFRB, NOTCH3, and RGS5).

A strong immune response in young adult honeybees masks their increased susceptibility to infection compared to older bees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Honeybees, Apis mellifera, show age-related division of labor in which young adults perform maintenance ("housekeeping") tasks inside the colony before switching to outside foraging at approximately 23 days old. Disease resistance is an important feature
