This volume represents the Proceedings of the Symposium on AIDS,
Drugs of Abuse and the Neuroimmune Axis. This meeting was held in
San Diego, California, November 11-13, 1995. As in the previous
symposia in this series, productive studies were reviewed
concerning the relationship between the nervous and the immune
systems in regards to the relationship between drugs of abuse and
infections, especially infections by the immunode ficiency virus
that causes AIDS. In recent years, various investigators have begun
to describe the role of illicit drugs and their endogenous
counterparts on the brain-immune axis. It is widely recognized that
the neuroendocrine system is intimately involved in the effects and
manifestations of the interactions of drugs of abuse and the immune
system. The meeting on which the chapters in this book are based
brought together many biological scientists from an array of
various scientific disciplines whose work is focused on the effects
of drugs of abuse on the neuroendocrine-immune axis and its
relationships to immunodeficiency caused by the AIDS virus. As in
the past, the symposium was unique in focusing on the .
brain-immune axis from the viewpoint of drugs of abuse rather than
from the viewpoint of immunity or the brain itself."
