I wonder how well this could be extended to help with other autoimmune disorders?

I fully expect this discovery to have applications above and beyond arthritis.

Immunotoxicity is the primary harmful agent in many diseases. This is the damage your immune system does to you while trying to combat the disease.

Immunotoxicity is also a primary component of much pain and inflammation as well as allergy.

This is a discovery that will lead to many more discoveries - many of which will impact human health and increase treatment options.

I’m sure the people with RA would like to give this stuff a try,,,sooner rather than later if any side effects were less than present treatments.

Northwestern University? The sex-toy school? When did they have time to do research?

They didn’t tell you the whole story. Some acted like bouncers, but others acted like your drunk uncle and kept falling off the barstool.

Animal studies are encouraging, but this is years away from getting through the necessary human studies to be approved.
