Spinal cord injury-induced immunodeficiency is mediated by a sympathetic-neuroendocrine adrenal reflex (2017) Prüss et al

Just today came across this study from September. Seems interesting to me.


"Our study was based on the premise that nerve pathways originating in the spinal cord exert a direct influence on organs involved in the immune system, such as lymph nodes and the spleen. To our surprise, we found that the disruption of immune organ function does not occur as a result of this direct connection; instead, it is the result of an immune system dysregulation which affects the entire body.”

And an article on it:
