sleep and immunity

Sleep is a strong regulator of immunological
processes. The basis of this influence is a
communication between the central nervous
and immune system which is mediated by
shared signals (neurotransmitters, hormones
and cytokines) and direct innervations of the
immune system by the autonomic nervous
system. Many immune functions display
prominent rhythms in synchrony with the
regular 24-h sleep–wake cycle, reflecting the
synergistic actions of sleep on immune system
parameters. During the intense phase response
to infection or chronic inflammation, regulatory
molecules cytokines are shared‘ by sleep and
the immune system and involved in both
normal physiological and disturbed sleep
phase.
