Shift of monocyte function toward cellular immunity during sleep.
BACKGROUND Sleep is considered to strengthen immune defense. We hypothesized that sleep achieves this effect by shifting the balance between types 1 and 2 cytokine activity toward increased type 1 activity, thereby supporting adaptive cellular immune responses. METHODS We analyzed monocyte-derived type 1 (interleukin 12 [IL-12]) and type 2 (IL-10) cytokines by means of multiparametric flow cy...
متن کاملSleep, immunity and shift workers: A review
To date, shift workers represent between 15% and 25% of the modern day workforce. Work time poses a great challenge to workers as it requires that they balance productivity and sleep time between shifts. As a result, these workers experience chronic sleep deprivation with increased fatigue and drowsiness due to this sleep deprivation. The impact of this kind of work on the immune system is not ...
متن کاملMonocyte-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity: a clinical test of monocyte function.
The lack of a simple, rapid, and quantitative test of the functional activity of the monocyte has hampered studies of the contribution of this cell type to host defense and human disease. This report describes an assay of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity, which depends exclusively upon the monocyte as the effector cell and therefore provides a convenient test of monocyte function. In th...

common disorder which may have both mental and physical effects.l'2 It is an excellent example ofthe close interaction between respiratory and cardiac function. It is claimed that among SAS patients there is an increased risk of sudden death during sleep.3 The literature which states this is very limited, but it seems that these patients run an increase risk of developing systemic hypertension,...
متن کاملComparison of sleep-related cardiac autonomic function between rotating-shift and permanent night-shift workers.
The purpose of this study was to explore whether sleep-related cardiac sympathetic activity is significantly lower in rotating shift workers than in permanent night shift workers, in order to evaluate whether shift work is preferable to permanent night work. Our sample comprised of twelve permanent night shift nurses and twelve rotating three-shift nurses. All female nurses slept in their dormi...
