Sickness and the social brain: How the immune system regulates behavior across species. [PDF]
Many instances of sickness critically involve the immune system. The immune system talks to the brain in a bi-directional loop. This discourse affords the immune system immense control, such that it can influence behavior and optimize recovery from ...

Prevention of LPS-induced microglia activation, cytokine production and sickness behavior with TLR4 receptor interfering peptides. [PDF]
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.

Behavioral determinants as predictors of return to work after long-term sickness absence: an application of the theory of planned behavior [PDF]
Background The aim of this prospective, longitudinal cohort study was to analyze the association between the three behavioral determinants of the theory of planned behavior (TPB) model-attitude, subjective norm and self-efficacy-and the time to return-to-

Involvement of NLRP3 inflammasome pathway in the protective mechanisms of ferulic acid and p-coumaric acid in LPS-induced sickness behavior and neuroinflammation in mice. [PDF]
Ferulic acid (FA) and p-coumaric acid (PCA) are abundantly present in commonly consumed food and beverages. Being polyphenolic compounds, they have been explored for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Symptom Clusters in Postchemotherapy Neutropenic Fever in Hematological Malignancy: Associations Among Sickness Behavior Symptom Cluster, Inflammatory Biomarkers of Procalcitonin and C-Reactive Protein, and Febrile Measures [PDF]
Context: Little research has been conducted to investigate symptom clusters in postchemotherapy neutropenic fever (NF), their relationships with inflammatory biomarkers, and febrile outcome measures in patients with hematological malignancy, a population

Neonatal stress modulates sickness behavior [PDF]
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
