Effect of Interleukin 1b on rat thymus microenvironment
The effect of interleukin 1b on the thymus of control and chemically sympathectomized adult and aged rats was studied with the aim of assessing the importance of adrenergic nerve fibres (ANF) in the regulation of some immunological functions.The whole ...

Sympathectomized tumor-bearing mice survive longer but develop bigger melanomas
Objectives. Previously we have shown that 20 days after the tumor cells injection smaller melanomas have been developed in chemically sympathectomized mice in comparison with animals having intact sympathetic nervous system.

Role of the sympathetic nervous system in carbon tetrachloride-induced hepatotoxicity and systemic inflammation. [PDF]
Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) is widely used as an animal model of hepatotoxicity and the mechanisms have been arduously studied, however, the contribution of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) in CCl4-induced acute hepatotoxicity remains controversial ...

Potential role of HPA axis and sympathetic nervous responses in depletion of B cells induced by H9N2 avian influenza virus infection. [PDF]
Except severe pulmonary disease caused by influenza virus infection, an impaired immune system is also a clinic characteristic. However, the mechanism(s) of influenza virus infection-induced depletion of B cells was unknown.
