The Involvement of Endothelin Pathway in Chronic Psychological Stress-Induced Bladder Hyperalgesia Through Capsaicin-Sensitive C-Fiber Afferents

Neuroimmunology and Allergic Disease

The prevalence of allergic diseases is rising globally, inducing heavy quality of life and economic burdens. Allergic reactions are mediated by the complex bi-directional cross-talk between immune and nervous systems that we are only beginning to understand. Here, we discuss our current understanding of the molecular mechanisms of how this cross-talk occurs in the skin, gut, and lungs. An improved understanding of the communication between the immune and nervous system may lead to the development of novel therapies for allergic diseases.
