Quantum, Brain, and Immunity Triangle in Mental Health and Neurosciences

Abstract

Immunopsychiatry is a fledgling research field with great potential in the etiological research of psychotic disorders and can turn out to be helpful in finding novel treatment strategies and repurposing existing therapeutic agents. The clinical applications of Neuroquantology complement some of the etiological views of psychotic disorders that are evolving in immunopsychiatry. The pathogenesis of psychotic process may involve an underlying immune disturbance leading to neuro-quantological disorders. The cytokine storm that occurs due to COVID-19 and the resulting neurotoxic effects illustrate how an autoimmune reaction can potentially form psychotic symptoms through the mediation of the brain. Studying the interconnection between neurotransmission and immunity has significant relevance in the etiopathogenesis of psychiatric disorders. Immunopsychiatry alone may not be adequate to explain the development of psychotic symptoms, but Neuroquantology and immunopsychiatry complement each other in this endeavor. An expanded model of the brain–mind consciousness complex is required to understand the intricacies of psychotic symptomatology and contributions from Neuroquantology are highly enrichening. The claims of the practitioners of quantum immunotherapies need further exploration. Quantum-brain and immunity triangle can result in a huge paradigmatic shift in our understanding of psychiatric disorders and the evolving landscape of immunopsychiatry and clinical Neuroquantology warrant further promotion.
