| Summary: | Stress triggers physiological mechanisms with a broad range of action that encompasses a large number of systems within the body and constitutes the theoretical foundation of an important branch of science, psycho-neuroendocrine-immunology. The research aimed to explain the mechanisms triggered in response to stress and link this process to psycho-neuroendocrine-immunology. Twenty-three bibliographic sources were consulted which were accessed through the computer network administrators. Stress constitutes an example of integration between different body systems. In this integration, the response to acute stress is protective and adaptive in nature. The response to chronic stress produces a biochemical imbalance with immunosuppressive alterations that lead to inflammatory, metabolic, and cardiovascular diseases. |
