Dietary Zinc Acts as a Sleep Modulator
While zinc is known to be important for many biological processes in animals at a molecular and physiological level, new evidence indicates that it may also be involved in the regulation of sleep. Recent research has concluded that zinc serum concentration varies with the amount of sleep, while orally administered zinc increases the amount and the quality of sleep in mice and humans. In this re...
متن کاملLactoferrin as a natural immune modulator.
Lactoferrin, an iron-binding glycoprotein, is a cell-secreted mediator that bridges innate and adaptive immune function in mammals. It is a pleiotropic molecule that directly assists in the influence of presenting cells for the development of T-helper cell polarization. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of research regarding the role of lactoferrin in maintaining immune homeostas...
متن کاملIL-10 plays an important role as an immune-modulator in the pathogenesis of atopic diseases.
Interleukin (IL)-10 has anti-inflammatory activities in various immune reactions and plays an important role in the regulation of immune diseases. In the present study, we examined the role of IL-10 in atopic diseases. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from healthy control subjects, patients with atopic dermatitis and patients with bronchial asthma were cultured with lipopolysaccharide...
متن کاملAutophagy as an Innate Immune Modulator
Autophagy is a fundamental cellular process in eukaryotic cells for maintaining homeostasis by degrading cellular proteins and organelles. Recently, the roles of autophagy have been expanded to immune systems, which in turn modulate innate immune responses. More specifically, autophagy acts as a direct effector for protection against pathogens, as well as a modulator of pathogen recognition and...
متن کاملOzone as a Modulator of the Immune System
In order to clarify the immunomodulating properties of ozone, we have investigated: a) the effects of stimulation on isolated peripheral human blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from normal donors with either ozone or ozonated serum; b) the range (in terms of O3 concentrations) of the therapeutic window; c) the stimulatory and toxic effects and d) the pattern, of both proinflammatory and immunosupp...
