Detta handlar om att man med hjälp av denna omkopplare kan motverka kronisk inflammation som i sig leder till en mängd andra sjukdomar.

Now, scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, have identified a molecular “switch” that controls the immune machinery responsible for chronic inflammation in the body. The results of their testing on mice could lead to new ways to halt or even reverse many of these age-related conditions.

Fantastiska upptäckter som kan leda till en bättre framtid för många.

Scientists Find Molecular ’Switch’ That Could Lead to Treatments for All Kinds of Disease by Reversing Inflammation and Aging

Chronic inflammation can contribute to a variety of devastating diseases, from Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s to diabetes and cancer. It flares up if old age, stress, or environmental toxins keep the body’s immune system in overdrive. Now, scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, have identified a molecular ”switch” that controls the immune machinery responsible for chronic inflammation in the body.
