Journal ArticleDOI
Sniffing neuropeptides: a transnasal approach to the human brain
TL;DR: Three peptides were administered intranasally and found that they achieved direct access to the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within 30 minutes, bypassing the bloodstream.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep and immune function
TL;DR: Comparisons of the effects of nocturnal sleep with those of 24-h periods of wakefulness suggest that sleep facilitates the extravasation of T cells and their possible redistribution to lymph nodes, and indicates a specific role of sleep in the formation of immunological memory.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Sleep-Immune Crosstalk in Health and Disease
TL;DR: The induction of a hormonal constellation that supports immune functions is one likely mechanism underlying the immune-supporting effects of sleep, and sleep appears to promote inflammatory homeostasis through effects on several inflammatory mediators, such as cytokines.
Journal Article
Effects of sleep and circadian rhythm on human circulating immune cells
TL;DR: The decrease in monocytes, NK cells, and lymphocytes, together with an increased production of IL-2 during sleep, may serve to support ongoing immune defense in extravascular lymphoid tissue during a time of diminished acute Ag challenge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of sleep and circadian rhythm on the human immune system
TL;DR: The circadian system and sleep jointly evoke a unique endocrine constellation that is extremely effective in inducing changes in leukocyte traffic and a shift toward proinflammatory type 1‐cytokines during the nocturnal period of sleep, that is, an action with strong clinical implications.
