Cytokines, glucocorticoids and neuroendocrine function

Activation of the immune system is normally associated with widespread alterations in neuroendocrine activity, the profile of which depends upon the species and on the severity and duration of the stimulus. Particularly important in this regard is the activation of the hypothalamo-pituitary- adrenoc...

description Activation of the immune system is normally associated with widespread alterations in neuroendocrine activity, the profile of which depends upon the species and on the severity and duration of the stimulus. Particularly important in this regard is the activation of the hypothalamo-pituitary- adrenocortical (HPA) axis for the consequent rise in circulating glucocorticoids serves to contain the ensuing pathophysiological responses and thus to restore homeostasis. In the present study, in vivo and in vitro techniques have been used to examine the influence of various immunokines on the HPA axis and to determine whether their actions are modulated by glucocorticoids and lipocortin 1 (LC1). In vivo interleukin-1/β (IL-1/β), given orally or peripherally, produced increases ( P
