最近才认识到内分泌功能与免疫之间的关联,虽然早在六十年前已证实激素对淋巴组织的作用。许多研究工作是用动物进行的,且大部分集中于肾上腺皮质激素。肾上腺切除可引起几乎所有动物淋巴组织重量绝对增加,而给予肾上腺皮质激素可引起淋巴组织退化。据报告,睾丸切除术和卵巢切除术后可引起类似的刺激作用,如同肾上腺的情况一样,用有关激素治疗亦可导致淋巴组织退化。在大量关于激素与淋巴组织之间关系的
The association between endocrine function and immunity has only recently been recognized, although the effect of hormones on lymphoid tissue has been demonstrated sixty years ago. Much of the research work is done with animals, and much of it focuses on adrenal cortical hormones. Adrenalectomy can cause an absolute increase in the weight of lymphoid tissue in almost all animals, whereas adrenal cortical hormones cause lymphoid tissue to degenerate. It has been reported that orchidectomy and ovariectomy produce similar stimulatory effects, as is the case with the adrenal glands, which can lead to degenerative lymphoid tissue with hormone therapy. In a lot about the relationship between hormones and lymphoid tissues
