Abstract

This review demonstrates that hormonal and neuronal factors, which are released during stressful situations, can unfavorably influence the two chronic diseases of rheumatoid arthritis and juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Noradrenaline and cortisol are in the focus of this review. In the said two chronic inflammatory diseases, it is obvious that apart from the immune system also the endocrine and nervous system play an essential role in the stress-induced initiation and aggravation of these diseases.
