Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The fact that certain adrenal steroid hormones are immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory has been known for many years, and is routinely exploited by physicians. These effects are attributable to glucocorticoid steroids such as cortisol. Pharmacological doses of glucocorticoids inhibit most or all T cell types. However we now know that the effect of exposure to raised physiological levels is mainly to drive developing lymphocyte responses towards a Th2 cytokine profile (interleukin-4 secreting) while suppressing the development ofThi (gamma interferon secreting) lymphocytes. Only recently have two further regulatory mechanisms become appar ent. First, these effects of cortisol are balanced by pro-inflammatory and ThI-enhancing effects of another adrenal steroid, dehydroepiandro sterone sulfate (DHEAS). Second, the activity of cortisol is directly modulated by enzymes in the target organs and lymphoid tissues that convert it into inactive cortisone. This new information leads to the possibility that immunoregulatory steroids could be used by physicians in novel ways. We can envisage steroid combinations that exploit the anti-inflammatory effects of corti sol, while the Thi-suppressing and Th2-promoting properties of these hormones are opposed by derivatives of DHEAS. Such therapies are already proving effective in animal models of infection, and could revol utionize treatment of Th2-mediated diseases such as asthma, where the anti-inflammatory effects of cortisol are desirable but the effects on T lymphocyte differentiation are not.…

Pp. Condition: Sehr gut. XII, 305 S. : Ill., graph. Darst. ; 24 cm Die Kernaussage: Moderne Lebensbedingungen reduzieren die Exposition gegenüber Mikroorganismen mit Folgen für die Regulation des Immunsystems und die Zunahme chronisch-entzündlicher Erkrankungen. Die Pämisse: Rook beschreibt, dass der Übergang vom Jäger-Sammler-Leben zu modernen Industriegesellschaften die Mikrobenexposition drastisch reduziert hat. Dies führt zu Fehlregulationen des Immunsystems und damit zu einem Anstieg von: allergischen Erkrankungen, Autoimmunerkrankungen, entzündlichen Darmerkrankungen, Atherosklerose, Depressionen mit entzündlicher Komponente, möglicherweise, Alzheimer und Parkinson. Die Hygienehypothese wird in einen evolutionären Kontext gestellt: Der menschliche Organismus ist an eine Umwelt angepasst, in der dauerhafte mikrobielle Stimulation normal war. Das moderne Mikroben-Defizit erzeugt evolutionär unpassende Immunreaktionen. Der Autor verbindet bei seinem Denkweg mikrobiologische Evolutionsgeschichte, Immunologie, Epidemiologie, klinische Beispiele aus vielen Organsystemen, therapeutische Perspektiven.
