Sleep and immune function [PDF]
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]
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.

Regulation of CCR7-dependent cell migration through CCR7 homodimer formation
The chemokine receptor CCR7 contributes to various physiological and pathological processes including T cell maturation, T cell migration from the blood into secondary lymphoid tissues, and tumor cell metastasis to lymph nodes.

Glutathione and immune function [PDF]
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
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 ...

Immune function in mania [PDF]
There is now a large body of evidence suggesting a close interaction between the central nervous system and the immune system. More specifically, immunological abnormalities have been described in relation to psychological stress (Jemrnott and Locke 1984) and in patients with psychiatric illness (DeLisi and Crow 1986).

The impact of a ketogenic diet on weight loss, metabolism, body composition and quality of life
Summary: A ketogenic diet (KD) is increasingly debated as a countermeasure against nutrition-related modern diseases. While being immunologically beneficial, KD is still suspected of having severe metabolic side effects and negatively impacting general ...
