Functional brain organization, handedness, and immune vulnerability in musicians and non-musicians. Neuropsychologia, 1993, Volume: 31, Issue:7 In the current investigation an approach has been made to explore possible relations between musical talent, left-handedness, anomalous dominance for verbal materials, and immune vulnerability. Fifty-one young adult musicians and non-musicians were tested with Wing's Standardized Tests of Musical Intelligence, with a handedness questionnaire, a dichotic listening task, and with a questionnaire assessing asthma/allergies, migraine and myopia. In addition, IgE, Ig total, beta-endorphin, testosterone, and estradiol were measured in blood serum. Musical talent was related to left-handedness and to anomalous dominance; immune vulnerability was found in female musicians, and in subjects with reversed dominance for language functions as well as in male left-handers, independently of musical talent. Topics: Adolescent; Adult; Aptitude; Autoimmune Diseases; beta-Endorphin; Dominance, Cerebral; Estradiol; Female; Functional Laterality; Humans; Hypersensitivity; Immunoglobulin E; Immunoglobulins; Longitudinal Studies; Male; Music; Psychoneuroimmunology; Risk Factors; Testosterone	1993
Modulating effect of beta-endorphin, somatostatin, substance P and vasoactive intestinal peptide on the proliferative response of peripheral blood T lymphocytes of nickel-allergic patients to nickel sulfate. International archives of allergy and applied immunology, 1986, Volume: 81, Issue:4 The influence of beta-endorphin, somatostatin, substance P (SP) and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) was tested on the proliferative response of peripheral blood T lymphocytes of nickel-allergic subjects to nickel sulfate. With somatostatin, 10(-6)-10(-10) M, SP, 10(-9) and VIP, 10(-7)-10(-8) M, added 1 h after nickel sulfate, there was an enhancement of the response, while a slight suppression was obtained with SP, 10(-6) M. At 3 days after nickel sulfate, beta-endorphin, 10(-6)-10(-12) M, somatostatin, 10(-7)-10(-9) M and SP, 10(-7)-10(-11) M, gave an enhancement of the response.
