Abstract: The immune system is critical to the organism's protection. The immune system's effects, however, are not restricted to immunological activities and have implications beyond the anti-pathogen role. Indeed, neuroimmunology is a science that studies how the immune system influences non-immune biological and physiopathological activities. To provide light on this vital topic, we have chosen a variety of neurodegenerative disorders as illustrative cases. Clarifying the links and interactions between the immune system and the nervous system is important for understanding neurodegenerative diseases because it will lead to new theories about pathogenesis and the mechanisms underlying the related processes, providing us with new data and novel tools to both describe the related pathways and develop new therapeutic approaches, diagnostic approaches, and research methodologies.
