Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2006
The complexity of the immune system allows for a multitude of potential avenues for nutrient modulation, but this also increase the challenge of producing a predictable in vivo response. Because the immune response is a cascade of biologic events, development of nutritional support paradigms cannot and should not be made in a vacuum or with the ...

Medical Hypotheses, 1987
Lithium has potent antiviral and immunostimulating properties which are probably consequences of its actions on prostaglandin synthesis. Although lithium has considerable potential in the prophylaxis of some viral illnesses and other manifestations of defective immune function, it is, paradoxically, capable of activating autoimmune mechanisms in ...

Abstract: Disturbed regulation of both the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal (HPA) axis and sympathoadrenomedullary system in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) suggests that immune function, which is modulated by these systems, may also be dysregulated.

Handedness and immune function
Brain and Cognition, 2001Geschwind, Galaburda, and Behan (GBG) have suggested that in utero levels of testosterone influence both cerebral and immune system developments (Geschwind and Behan, 1982; Geschwind and Galaburda, 1984; Geschwind and Galaburda, 1985). According to this theory, high levels of testosterone result in greater incidences of left-handedness, deviations from

Immune function in the elderly
Postgraduate Medicine, 1987PreviewNormal aging is accompanied by diverse alterations in immune function, which can be associated with illness. Assessment of the immune status in an elderly patient should be based on a thorough history and physical examination rather than laboratory testing.

Glucocorticoids and immune function
Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1999The prevailing notion has been that cytokines such as interleukin-1 released from sites of inflammation cross the blood-brain barrier and drive the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis so that cortisol is released into the circulation to exert indiscriminate systemic anti-inflammatory effects.

Immune functions in methylmalonicaciduria
Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 1983AbstractA variety of phagocytic cell and lymphocyte assays were employed to evaluate the immune status of four patients with methylmalonicaciduria. One patient had a depressed absolute granulocyte count and two patients had depressed neutrophil and monocyte chemotactic responses. All subjects had normal neutrophil phagocytic and bactericidal activities.

[Obesity and immune function].
Annali italiani di chirurgia, 2005The perspective of obesity as a low grade systemic inflammatory condition has triggered a new interest on the many overlapping areas between this pathology and the immune system. White adipose tissue production of proteins related to the immune function has shown that many of these adipokines are implied in the ethiopathogenesis of some of the major ...

AbstractDuring the past decade, mechanisms involved in the immune surveillance of the central nervous system (CNS) have moved to the forefront of neuropathological research mainly because of the recognition that most neurological disorders involve activation and, possibly, dysregulation of microglia, the intrinsic macrophages of the CNS.

Metallothioneins and Immune Function
2016Early studies analyzing the expression of MTs in particular organs had already suggested the existence of a tissue-specific repertoire of MT proteins (Chakrabarty and Maiti 1985). MTs were also detected in immune organs, including the spleen, the bone marrow, and the thymus (Savino et al. 1984; Huber and Cousins 1993).
