Kvalitatiivne uurimustöö Emotsioonide regulatsioon ja stress
(Steptoe et al.,
2007; Herbert et al., 2006; De Kloet et al., 2005; Kiecolt-Glaser et al., 2003; Rohleder
et al., 2002,). Psychological and other forms of stress influence the sympathetic
nervous system, hypothalamuspituitary adrenal (HPA) - axis, and immune system;
the interaction between these systems is complex (Raison et al., 2003, Pariante &
Miller, 2001; Adler, Felten & Cohen, 2001). Activation of the HPA axis by physical
or psychological stress begins with corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH) secretion
from the Hypothalamus, CRH then signals the Anterior Pituitary gland to secrete
Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), ACTH then acts on the Adrenal gland which
then produces glucocorticoids such as corticosterone and cortisol (Figure 3) which
have important metabolic and immunological effects (Arzt, 2001; Hoffman-Goetz &
Pederson, 1994; Fitzgerald, 1998).
