Enhancing versus Suppressive Effects of Stress on Immune Function: Implications for Immunoprotection versus Immunopathology
: It is widely believed that stress suppresses immune function and increases susceptibility to infections and cancer. Paradoxically, stress is also known to exacerbate allergic, autoimmune, and inflammatory diseases. These observations suggest that stress may have bidirectional effects on immune function, being immunosuppressive in some instances and immunoenhancing in others. It has recently b...

Moreover, the short-term fight-or-flight stress response is one of nature's fundamental defense mechanisms that enables th...

Contrary to the idea that stress suppresses immunity, we have reported that short-duration stressors significantl...
