The influence of immunity on the regulation process of the homeostatic mechanism in animals

Abstract

This study examines the role of the immune system in regulating the homeostatic mechanisms of animals, particularly in conditions of physiological stress such as pregnancy. The research highlights how deficiencies in essential microelements like zinc, copper, and cobalt can impair immune resistance and disrupt metabolic processes. It was observed that reduced immunity contributes to the weakening of non-specific resistance, especially in newborn calves, leading to primary immunosuppressive conditions. These changes affect the body's ability to maintain homeostasis, resulting in a decline in animal health and economic productivity. The findings emphasize the importance of monitoring immune and metabolic parameters to prevent immunodeficiency-related disorders in livestock.
