How the Brain Regulates Disease
Tears of joy are biochemically different
from tears shed while chopping an onion.
Additionally, there's data suggesting
that the growth lines in a child's teeth
can indicate whether they might suffer
from depression as an adult.
This implies that stress and adversity
in childhood affect tooth enamel.
In another experiment,
when inflammation was induced in a mouse's abdomen,
specific neurons in the brain were observed to become active.
Later, when scientists stimulated these neurons,
similar inflammation appeared in the abdomen.
Research by Dr. Rolls in Israel also revealed
that positive expectations can enhance antibacterial and antitumor immunity.
The key point is that immune responses are shaped by the brain.
Suppressing neurons associated with a particular disease
can alleviate the symptoms of that disease.
