Effects of Climate Change on the Immune System: A Narrative Review

Health Science Reports, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 8(4)

Published: April 1, 2025

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Human activities have greatly influenced global temperatures, leading to climate change warming. This narrative review aims explore the relationship between immune system, focusing on how environmental stressors can affect regulation, both hyperactivity suppression. Methods A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed Google Scholar for peer‐reviewed studies published up June 2024. The terms included “climate change,” “human health,” “infection,” “immunity,” “disease.” Inclusion criteria were based relevance, originality, accessibility. Results Exposure elevated temperatures significantly impair system cells, an overproduction of signaling molecules that promote inflammation. Temperature fluctuations been shown influence various aspects adaptive response, including cell mobilization, antigen processing presentation, lymphocyte trafficking activation, functionality B T cells. Notably, some research suggests heat stress negatively impacts differentiation, replication, proportion, resulting decreased immunoglobulin cytokine production, contributing immunosuppression. Additionally, change‐related exposures compromise epithelial barriers skin, lungs, gut, microbial dysbiosis, dysregulation. Furthermore, factors such as temperature variations, humidity, air pollutant levels may exacerbate prevalence infectious diseases, measles HIV, with varying acute, chronic, latent infections, further variability. Conclusion Climate change, particularly increased function, heightened inflammatory responses, Future should focus developing sustainable management strategies enhance health resilience face ongoing climatic changes.

Climate change impacts food systems, causing nutritional deficiencies and increasing cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Regulatory frameworks like the European Farm-to-Fork Strategy aim to mitigate these effects, but current EU safety regulations inadequately address health risks from poor diet quality contaminants. adversely affects quality, such as nutrient depletion in crops due higher CO

Community-Led Climate Preparedness and Resilience in Boston: New Evidence from Communities of Color

Climate, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 12(9), P. 149 - 149

Published: Sept. 22, 2024

Communities of color have been historically excluded and marginalized in the ongoing conversations about climate preparedness resilience at local, national, global levels. Using focus groups composed Boston communities (Asian American, Black, Latino, Native American), this study aimed to understand their perspectives on change, providing in-depth knowledge its impact views resilience. Research shows that these long concerned change emphasize urgent need improve preparedness. A multi-pronged approach is crucial: listening leverage local leadership, engaging community organizing, advocating for policy redirecting attention institutional resources, addressing systemic inequalities exacerbate vulnerabilities. The findings highlight changes driven by collaboration collective action, which can benefit those most negatively impacted lack beyond.

Exploring the Heat Mitigation Effects of Urban Climate Adaptation Facilities

Sustainability, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 16(22), P. 9919 - 9919

Published: Nov. 14, 2024

Urban heat islands (UHI), which are exacerbated by climate change, significantly increase stress, particularly affecting vulnerable populations, such as the elderly and children. This study evaluates effectiveness of various urban mitigation technologies, including cooling fog systems, cool roofs (reflective paint), shading structures, small water paths, in reducing temperatures enhancing thermal comfort. Field tests were conducted from 2021 to 2023 across Gimhae-si, Yechun-gun, Geyang-gu, Sangju-si, with support Korean Ministry Environment. The results demonstrated that systems provided immediate temperature reductions, lowering ambient up 3.1 °C, while reduced surface 2–3 °C. Shading structures 10 paths cooled air 1.5 also increasing humidity improving findings suggest a combination these technologies can effectively mitigate especially areas populations.
