Traditional medical science has kept the mind separate from the body. Now people realize that the psyche and the soma are constantly interacting. And psychoneuroimmunology is the new evolved science that describes such kind of interactions. Many studies show that psychological stress (acute, brief naturalistic and chronic) has immune modulatory activity. In this book a typical psycho-neuro-endocrine-immune network has been shown. From this network Corticotrophin Releasing Factor (CRF), Adrenocorticotrophic Hormone (ACTH), Glucocorticoids (GC), -endorphin and Met-enkephalin are found as...

G Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) are a large family of seven transmembrane (TM) helical structural motif containing proteins that regulate cellular communication. Based on sequence similarity within the seven TM segment in human, the major five GPCR families are rhodopsin,secretin, glutamate, adhesion and frizzled/taste. GPCRs are principle signal transducer that activate senses of sight, smell and test, and responsible for many signaling disorders and diseases. Molecular mechanisms of GPCR activation are always implicated as a therapeutic purpose to discover new drug targets. Several...
