Title: What is the relationship between stress and immune disorders? Post by: Norris Day on Nov 1, 2021 What is the relationship between stress and immune disorders?
▸ Stress causes lymphocytes to become active; people with an immune disorder already have active lymphocytes, so their protection from stress is greater. ▸ Stress causes white blood cells to increase; more white blood cells protect the body from foreign invaders, so stress makes the development of immune disorders less likely. ▸ Stress leads to immunosuppression; people with an immune disorder are therefore at greater risk when under stress. ▸ Stress causes the release of epinephrine, which in turn activates greater production of T cells; this sequence directly causes immune disorders.
