Cannon taught that activation of the sympathetic nervous system and adrenal gland in emergencies helps maintain homeostasis, a word he invented. Since then, other neuroendocrine systems have been described that are closely linked to components of the ANS. These include the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) system, the renin-angiotensinaldosterone system (RAS), and the arginine vasopressin system. Across a variety of stressors, responses of plasma epinephrine (EPI) levels are more closely tied to those of adrenocorticotropin (the anterior pituitary hormone of the HPA axis) than of norepinephrine (NE, the neurotransmitter of the sympathetic noradrenergic system (SNS)). These findings support a close association between the sympathetic adrenergic system (SAS) and the HPA axis. The SNS and SAS in turn are closely connected to the RAS. Occupation of b1 adrenoceptors in renal juxtaglomerular cells releases renin, adrenomedullary chromaffin cells possess angiotensin receptors that when occupied evoke EPI secretion, and there is a central neural renin-angiotensin system that participates in the regulation of sympathetic outflow. Angiotensinconverting enzyme type 2 converts angiotensin II (AII) to angiotensin 1–7, which opposes the effects of AII. SARS-CoV-2 enters cells via binding to angiotensin-converting enzyme type 2. In addition to being a pressor and the body’s main water-retaining hormone, in the brain vasopressin augments baroreflexive restraint of sympathetic outflows. A second aspect of the EAS is neuroimmunity. Cortisol is well known to be the major anti-inflammatory compound of the HPA axis. The cytokine interleukin 6 activates the HPA axis2 and stimulates the production of aldosterone, demonstrating links between the immunological and neuroendocrine facets of the EAS. A cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway involves cytokine-induced increases in vagal afferent traffic and vagal efferent inhibitory effects on inflammasomal cytokine release. 3 Vagal stimulation inhibits the production of the cytokine tumor necrosis factor a, probably via the 2 main neurotransmitters of the ANS, acetylcholine and NE. No simple concept explains catecholaminergic influences on immunity. Although across a variety of stressful situations increases in EPI levels are associated with elevations of interleukin 6, bases for this relationship are poorly understood. Immune cells synthesize and release catecholamines, 4 but the functional significance is unknown.
