The concepts of the neuroendocrine system and the immune system
emerged more or less simultaneously in the second half of the 20th
century. Although these systems have a high degree of autonomy, it
has also become clear that they interact in many ways and at
different levels. This book focuses on the neuroendocrine and
immune interactions that are fundamental to normal development and
maintenance of health. The first introductory chapters are devoted
to the historical and philosophical concepts within the field, as
well as evolutionary considerations, offering critical
interdisciplinary perspectives on the development of this field of
research. Without attempting an exhaustive overview, the book then
introduces some of the regulatory pathways that mediate
interactions between the neuroendocrine and immune systems and
examines modulating factors such as age and sex. In addition,
several chapters address the importance of neuroendocrine-immune
interactions in some disease states. Readers can expect to gain a
broad perspective of neuroendocrine-immune interactions in
development, health, and disease, along with a critical evaluation
of current methods used in the field. Given its scope, the book is
essential reading for undergraduate and graduate students with an
interest in neuroendocrinology, neuroimmunology, and neuroscience,
as well as postdoctoral fellows and established researchers seeking
a comprehensive overview and historical perspective of the field of
neuroendocrine-immune interactions.
