A suppressive protein generated in peripheral lymph tissue induced by restraint stress.
The results discussed here indicate that under the conditions of restraint stress and under the control of CNS, a suppressive protein (NIP) was generated in peripheral lymph tissue and released into the blood stream, which acts as a immune suppressor. It is potentially a very important molecule that could be very important to our understanding of the interaction between CNS and immune function.
