Diurnal variation in inflammatory and immune function is evident in the physiology and
pathology of humans and animals, but molecular mechanisms and mediating cell types that …

The circadian system is an important regulator of immune function. Human inflammatory lung
diseases frequently show time-of-day variation in symptom severity and lung function, but …

Glucocorticoids (GCs) are the most potent anti-inflammatory agents known. A major factor
limiting their clinical use is the wide variation in responsiveness to therapy. The high doses of …

Social media has revolutionized corporate communications, rapidly changing the way that
public relations campaigns or programs are distributed and measured. Rather than the …

The circadian clock regulates many aspects of immunity. Bacterial infections are affected by
time of day, but the mechanisms involved remain undefined. Here we show that loss of the …

The present study examines the impact of various types of loss on the assumptive world
views of bereaved parents. The World Assumptions Scale (WAS) and the Revised Grief …

Successful implantation requires the synchronization of viable embryonic development with
endometrial receptivity. The mechanisms allowing for the initiation of crosstalk between the …

The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is a major drug target in inflammatory disease. However,
chronic glucocorticoid (GC) treatment leads to disordered energy metabolism, including …

Many glucocorticoid (Gc) actions are of rapid onset and therefore require acute regulation of
intracellular signaling cascades. Integration of diverse extracellular signals requires cross-…

Recently research studies have begun to examine the theory that religion may help bereaved
individuals to provide meaning (or an explanation) to an otherwise inconceivable event. In …
