Psychedelics reduce fear by targeting immune cells that modulate brain cells Immune cells boost stress-linked fear responses by communicating with brain cells. One way that psychedelics lessen such fear is by modulating this interaction.

Very cool pathway here where the inflammatory cytokine IL-1-beta from monocytes promotes stress. Psychedelic drugs (psilocybin & MDMA) disrupt the secretion of IL-1-beta. IL-1-beta promotes astrocyte & neuron cross-talk.
