Neuroendocrine–immune interaction in fish: Differential regulation of phagocyte activity by neuroendocrine factors
Research highlights ► Neuroendocrine regulation of the immune response is a well conserved phenomenon. ► Glucocorticoid, opioid and adrenergic receptors were cloned in carp. ► Hormone receptors on leukocytes are regulated upon immune stimulation. ► Cortisol, morphine and adrenaline differentially re...

Zusammenfassung: | Research highlights ► Neuroendocrine regulation of the immune response is a well conserved phenomenon. ► Glucocorticoid, opioid and adrenergic receptors were cloned in carp. ► Hormone receptors on leukocytes are regulated upon immune stimulation. ► Cortisol, morphine and adrenaline differentially regulate fish phagocyte activity. ► It is hypothesized that this contributes to the protection of host tissue. |
