Use of Drugs that Affect Nutrition and Immune Function

  • Chapter
Diet and Human Immune Function

Part of the book series: Nutrition and Health ((NH))

Abstract

The objectives of this chapter are to examine the effects of drug treatments on four major immune-related diseases and to determine the nutritional consequences of the drug-disease interaction in adults living in developed countries. The diseases discussed include HIV infection, diabetes (type 1 and type 2), rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is included because of the role of the osteoclast, which is a macrophagederived cell involved in bone breakdown (1). Insulin is a significant enhancer of bone formation, and, therefore, osteoporosis is often a consequence of diabetes (2). Osteoporosis is also included after the discussion of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) because the major drug class used to treat RA, glucocorticoids, is a known cause of secondary osteoporosis (3–5). Finally, organ transplant-associated osteoporosis demonstrates the links between a medical event (transplantation), immunotherapy, and nutritional effects (6,7).
