Neural reflex regulation of systemic inflammation: potential new targets for sepsis therapy.

Neural reflex regulation of systemic inflammation: potential new targets for sepsis therapy.

Sepsis progresses to multiple organ dysfunction due to the uncontrolled release of inflammatory mediators, and a growing body of evidence shows that neural signals play a significant role in modulating the immune response. Thus, similar toall other physiological systems, the immune system is both co...
