Immune response to infections may be more closely linked to endocannabinoid system than previously thought
blogs.ifas.ufl.edu
Researchers at the University of Florida have unlocked new insights into how the immune system controls infection, revealing an unexpected role for the body’s endocannabinoid system. The body relies...

In 1992 Peter Ratcliffe received this rejection letter from Nature. His findings were not "a sufficient advance in our understanding". 27 years later he won the Nobel Prize for the same discovery. Don't lose faith in the things you believe in.

This was an exciting project to work on! We are currently working on a second study on this topic.
Loss of cannabinoid receptors weakens immune defenses against #Salmonella. This #mBio study shows how CB1R and CB2R differently shape infection outcomes and #microbiota. https://t.co/GD52Ns2xek

A single shot that reprograms your DNA to lower cholesterol—permanently. No pills. No injections. No heart attacks. Eli Lilly just paid $1.3B for the company making it real. If it works, it won’t just treat heart disease—it could erase it from medicine altogether.🧵
