Sleep and immune function [PDF]

open access: yesPflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology, 2011
Sleep and the circadian system exert a strong regulatory influence on immune functions. Investigations of the normal sleep-wake cycle showed that immune parameters like numbers of undifferentiated naïve T cells and the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines exhibit peaks during early nocturnal sleep whereas circulating numbers of immune cells with ...

Zinc-Altered Immune function [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Nutrition, 2003
Zinc is known to be essential for all highly proliferating cells in the human body, especially the immune system. A variety of in vivo and in vitro effects of zinc on immune cells mainly depend on the zinc concentration. All kinds of immune cells show decreased function after zinc depletion.

Glutathione and immune function [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2000
The immune system works best if the lymphoid cells have a delicately balanced intermediate level of glutathione. Even moderate changes in the intracellular glutathione level have profound effects on lymphocyte functions. Certain functions, such as the DNA synthetic response, are exquisitely sensitive to reactive oxygen intermediates and, therefore, are

B cells extract antigens at Arp2/3-generated actin foci interspersed with linear filaments

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Antibody production depends on B cell internalization and presentation of antigens to helper T cells. To acquire antigens displayed by antigen-presenting cells, B cells form immune synapses and extract antigens by the mechanical activity of the acto ...
