Chronic stress-induced immune dysregulation in cancer: implications for initiation, progression, metastasis, and treatment

This comprehensive review explores how chronic psychological stress disrupts immune regulation, thereby influencing cancer initiation, progression, metastasis, and therapeutic resistance. Chronic stress activates the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and sympathetic nervous system, leading to elevated levels of glucocorticoids and catecholamines. These hormonal changes impair immune surveillance by promoting the expansion of

Correcting magnesium deficiencies may prolong life

This 2012 review and in vitro/animal study explored the critical role of magnesium (Mg) in slowing aging processes, with a focus on insights from space flight research, where microgravity-induced Mg depletion accelerates aging. Findings indicate that Mg deficiency contributes to elevated catecholamines, oxidative stress, insulin resistance, inflammation, endothelial damage, and
