Neural-endocrine-immune complex in the central modulation of tumorigenesis: facts, assumptions, and hypotheses. Vrije Universiteit Brussel
For the precise coordination of systemic functions, the nervous system uses a variety of peripherally and centrally localized receptors, which transmit information from internal and external environments to the central nervous system. Tight interconnections between the immune, nervous, and endocrine systems provide a base for monitoring and consequent modulation of immune system functions by the brain and vice versa.
