Pass the snuff and loosen the corsets – they’re back to researching hysteria Professor Andrew Lloyd is the only advisor to the National...
Do report back if you can. And if you get a chance to ask, I would be interested to hear if Ros knows of any younger doctors coming through with a...
As a general rule of thumb, ref is the original allele and usually the good one, and alt is the more recent mutation and usually the bad one. But,...
You are perfectly right of course @Trish. None of us laypeople is going to work out the solution for a problem in such a complex biological...
This potential ME-trigger-to-tryptophan route is mighty confusing. On the one hand stressors and infections can upregulate IDO and TDO,...
I've only read the abstract which I interpret - in/correctly? - as not referring to tryptophan synthesis but only to tryptophan metabolism, i.e....
@mariovitali What about TDO, do you know? That's in the liver I understand but the question is could it be downregulated by any of the typical ME...
You ask a lot of good questions in your blog @Jenny TipsforME, so good I'd like to highlight just a few here. This had entered my mind, too. The...
You're welcome @paolo. I do enjoy your blog and often find it helpful when trying to get my head around a complex ME issue. Though in this...
As I understand it the actual trap hypothesis is more concerned with IDO1 inhibition than TDO (plus of course the IDO2 fault) but if what you say...
I have a possibly dumb question about the trap After watching Phair's presentation plus reading about it on a blog...
Will the relevant authorities/people see the recent re-analysis of the ME Cochrane review? Can somebody make sure they do?...
Always nice to see the establishment of another ME research center, especially one featuring new (new to me anyway) names. The more the merrier!...
Yes, funding organisations are typically conservative but like to see themselves as progressive and cutting edge. That's why I think Moreau would...
How about linking in with work done on microRNA by Prof Alain Moreau who recently presented his findings at Stanford and CMRC2018? Health Canada...
Yes, I've always been a bit confused by Ros' statements, too. On the one hand she always mentions physiological underpinnings (more or less well...
This still happening except that when I added my 1 star - for lack of a zero star rating! - average rating of 1 star based on 1 rating of 4 stars...
This thread reminded me of one of Cort's blogs discussing a connection between inflammation and the placebo effect. Note that the study this is...
A couple of paragraphs jumped out at me in Cort's blog: Let's hope Jarred does get that money. Finding out what's happening in our brains after...
Article doesn't say much more than how nice it'll be for MUS patients on the island of Fyn to finally have their own Center to go to where they'll...
