Immune Modulation

Meaning

The precise and intentional adjustment of the immune system’s activity to achieve a desired clinical outcome, which can involve either enhancing a suppressed or inadequate immune response or actively suppressing an overactive inflammatory or autoimmune reaction. This complex biological process aims to restore immunological homeostasis, which is essential for effective defense against pathogens while simultaneously preventing chronic inflammatory states. It is a sophisticated strategy utilized in therapeutic fields from infectious disease to autoimmune management.
