250-虚拟感染威胁触发的神经免疫反应

21 Nov 2025

Description

这篇文章探讨了人类神经系统与免疫系统之间的整合反应,尤其是在面对潜在感染威胁时。研究人员利用虚拟现实(VR)技术,让参与者接触带有感染迹象的虚拟形象,并监测了他们的行为、神经生理学(EEG和fMRI)以及免疫反应。结果显示,当这些“感染性虚拟形象”进入参与者的近体空间(peripersonal space, PPS)时,大脑中与PPS和显著性网络(salience network)相关的区域会产生预期性的激活。更重要的是,这种虚拟威胁的神经预期引发了先天淋巴细胞(ILCs)的频率和激活变化,这些变化与实际感染(如流感疫苗接种)引起的免疫反应相似。通过动态因果模型(DCM)和神经网络分析,研究进一步揭示了这种神经-免疫的串扰涉及下丘脑-垂体-肾上腺(HPA)轴以及其他神经介质的复杂调节。References: Trabanelli S, Akselrod M, Fellrath J, et al.
