The role of cytokines in the processes of adaptive integration of immune and neuroendocrine reactions of the human body
https://doi.org/10.14341/probl12744
Abstract
The immune, endocrine and nervous systems are integrated due to the existence of reciprocal pathways for transmitting information about changes in their actual functional state. The main task of the brain is to receive, integrate and store information, and there is strong evidence that this also applies to information obtained through the body’s immune responses. It has been proven that the production of cytokines in the brain can be caused not only by peripheral immune stimulation, but also by the nerve cells themselves, stimulated by certain neurosensory signals. Evolutionarily preserved antihomeostatic mechanisms characteristic of specific diseases are the subject of further research, the results of which may be very important for the development of therapeutic strategies that would prevent the undesirable combined effects of immune and neuroendocrine mediators.
