Sickness Behavior in Honey Bees. [PDF]
Front Physiol, 2016 During an infection, animals suffer several changes in their normal physiology and behavior which may include lethargy, appetite loss, and reduction in grooming and general movements. This set of alterations is known as sickness behavior and although it has been extensively believed to be orchestrated primarily by the immune system, a relevant role for

How Does the Social Grouping of Animals in Nature Protect Against Sickness? A Perspective
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021 Sickness behavior is broadly represented in vertebrates, usually in association with the fever response in response to acute infections. The reactions to sickness behavior in a group member or potential group member in humans is quite variable, depending

Prevention of LPS-induced microglia activation, cytokine production and sickness behavior with TLR4 receptor interfering peptides. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The innate immune receptor Toll-like 4 (TLR4) is the receptor activated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and TLR4-LPS interaction is well known to induce an innate immune response, triggering sickness behavior.

Brain, Behavior, and Immunity, 2009 The quality of the early environment, especially during the neonatal period, influences the development of individual differences in resistance to stress and illness in adulthood. A previous study demonstrated that neonatal stress augmented proinflammatory cytokine expression and viral replication in influenza virus-infected adult mice. The goal of the
