The Innate Immune Response to Non-infectious Stressors: Human and Animal Models highlights fundamental mechanisms of stress response and important findings on how the immune system is affected, and in turn affects such a response. In addition, this book covers the crucial link between stress response and energy metabolism, prompts a re-appraisal of some crucial issues, and helps to define research priorities in this fascinating, somehow elusive field of investigation.Provides insights into the fundamental homeostatic processes vis-`-vis stressors to help in investigationIllustrates the depicted tenets and how to offset them against established models of response to physical and psychotic stressors in both animals and humansCovers the crucial issue of the immune response to endocrine disruptorsIncludes immunological parameters as reporter system of environmental adaptationProvides many illustrative examples to foster reader understanding
