An exciting new study is testing the relationship between chlamydia pneumonia and Alzheimer’s. The study treated patients with Trichostatin A (TSA), givinostat, and RG108, which are effective on epigenetic mechanisms; and the antibiotic rifampin, to reduce neuro-inflammation. Chronic CP can spread to the brain and cause Alzheimer’s, neuro-inflammation, and epigenetic changes; thus, treatments administered in the study had a neuroprotective effect by treating the offending pathogens, and the inflammation and epigenetic changes induced by the pathogen. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34847172/
Cardiac disease, macular degeneration and Alzheimer’s are common co-morbid conditions. The reason these co-morbidities occur is because each arises from a common root cause—chronic chlamydia pneumonia (CP). CP damages the endothelium inside blood vessels and at the blood brain barrier, and causes the build-up of plaque and narrowing of vessels. CP also causes angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels) and many other adverse effects. CP can impair cardiac function by damaging endothelium inside blood vessels, and depositing plaque…..
Alois Alzheimer, and many others up to the present time, have suggested Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has an infectious cause. The risk of AD is higher in close contacts of AD patients, and non-genetic relatives living in the household of an animal handler. AD prone mice given antibiotics for as short as one week had reduced risk for AD and developed far fewer protein clumps typical of dementia and AD. Infectious pathogens have been identified inside, under and around plaque. A…..
On June 7, 2021, the FDA gave fast-track conditional approval to Aduhelm (aducanumab), a new IV drug for Alzheimer’s given once a month, at a cost of $56,000 per year. Aduhelm removes amyloid beta from the brain and the hope is removing amyloid beta will treat or slow the cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s. The FDA gave Biogen nine years to prove Aduhelm is beneficial in treating or slowing cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s, after clinical studies were inconclusive. Patients receiving Aduhelm…..
The “intracell research group” held an interesting conference today on pre-morbid conditions in Alzheimer’s disease, and the recording will be posted on their website shortly, in two parts. (intracellresearchgroup.com) One presenter made the point hundreds of thousands of studies have been published identifying observations and findings in Alzheimer’s, but few if any with conclusions on causation. He stated we must first know the cause before we can find effective solutions, because if we can pinpoint one or more causes we…..
We are happy to share information on an upcoming Alzheimer’s conference. Alzheimer’s has many pre-morbid conditions, as the infectious cause of Alzheimer’s evolves and interacts with the immune system and other pathogens over the course decades. Intracell Research Group YleetstSepgredotaSryg onhast d1oihn0:0gd7reealrdii ASM · It is an honor and a privilege to host this event on June 15th, 2021. Please share this excellent educational opportunity with your networks. The topics covered will address an incredibly important question: What are the pre-pathology events in Alzheimer’s…..
Medical research is done within each medical specialty, limited by specialty knowledge, interest and funding. Medical research proposes narrow hypotheses as to what the study may find, then reports the observations, findings, and “associations”, in a scientific publication. Medical research is often directed to reporting small details, observations, findings, and associations, hoping an answer will reveal itself (to someone else). Even when a pathogen is identified, it is called an “association”, without follow-up studies to determine if the pathogen causes…..
In “The Origin of Disease: The War Within” we wrote that abnormal proteins generated by immortal pathogens are not alive; and thus, cannot be killed. Abnormal proteins cause tissue to stick together, become inclusion cysts, are a focus for immune system attack, and adhere to and alter genes and gene expression. Understanding immortal pathogens are generating abnormal proteins may lead to alternatives for treatment, and new ways to eliminate abnormal proteins in the body after acute and chronic infection. …..
Check out the interview of Nikki Schultek, founder of of the Intracell Research Group, on infection and Alzheimer’s disease. Their website shares scientific articles on chronic infection as a cause of chronic disease, and four of their board members were cited in our book. We added a link to their webpage on our FB page because of their important work and advocacy; and their readily available resources supporting infectious causes of chronic disease. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=sshare&v=W3ICLHkykDg&app=desktop
Chlamydia species and H-pylori have been linked to ocular surface disorders, glaucoma, and retinal disease. Chlamydia trachoma is the leading cause of blindness in the world. Chlamydia psittacosis can cause MALT lymphoma in the eye, Waldenstrom syndrome, and ocular melanoma. Toxoplasmosis has been linked to retinal disease and blinding. Many eye diseases are described as “itis”, meaning inflammation in a specific part of the eye, without understanding pathogens are capable of causing the inflammation and the disease or syndrome (more…..
