Parasites That Live Inside Cells Use Loophole To Thwart Immune System

2008-11-10T11:11:00.002-06:00

Man, I haven't posted forever.

I wondered what the "mechanism" is.

"The researchers also traced the biochemical mechanism by which the organisms triggered arginase—finding that the microbes hijack the machinery by which the macrophages recognize invading pathogens."

It's so interesting to find out what those chemicals are that these intracellular pathogens use. And there are so many.

Nanobacteria, Cell Wall Deficient Forms

2007-05-30T15:40:00.000-06:00

This is an older pdf from Milton Wainwright which gives a beautiful introduction to the wonderfully suppressed world of tiny pleiomorphic bacteria, Cell wall deficient forms, viruses, L-forms, nanobacteria, whatever the hell you want to call the phenomena.

It's a shame how undeveloped the biology is in this field. However, the Marshall Protocol offers chronic disease sufferers an easy way to acknowledge CWD forms and follow a rigorous Th1 protocol to full remission. There are earlier blog posts here with much evidence concerning these forms.

My own feelings about microbial communities are very hard to characterize. "Gene-swapping collectives," "DNA pea soup" are a couple of phrases which describe this complex environment. This news article about the DOE comes as an advancement in genomics to help compute sequences and structures, make sense of the total mess of a storm microbes eventually attain in a chronic environment, and validate those findings.

Metagenomics, and the blurring of Species... - Dr Marshall's Perspective - DR MARSHALL'S PERSPECTIVE - THE MARSHALL PROTOCOL:
"The American Society for Microbiology has released a new (FREE) document

'Reconciling Microbial Systematics and Genomics,' March 2007

which explains in detail how pathogens engage in lateral transfer of DNA (and other miscellany) to morph into species which can no longer be readily regarded as distinct. Another older document from the same source is

'Microbial Triggers of Chronic Human Illness,' April 2005

Which we have seen before, but is worth review now. Especially the summary of 'problems' starting on page 9. Enjoy!

ps: I totally agree with this passage:

The criteria used to ascribe etiology to non-microbial causes like genetics and non-infectious environmental influences are far less rigorous than those applied to identify microbial causes. For example, the autism community has all but concluded that autism is a genetic disease, but the dizygotic twin and sibling concordance studies do not support a dominant role for genetic cause. These potential etiologies need to be held to the same experimental standards for causation as microbial etiologies."

F'ing vaccines! We live in a messed up medical world, driven by $hite. I read "The Cancer Microbe" over last summer. I also read Lida Mattman's "Stealth Pathogens.....". What is wrong with the Cancer machine? Don't they understand the complex interaction between communites of bacteria, viruses and God knows what else? I guess, they just don't want to understand. Selfishness is harmful.
Do me a favor and never get a vaccine unless it's the freakin bubonic plague or something insanely stupid.

The most numerous cells in our body are microbial—they outnumber our cells 10 to 1. The body has microbes native to the body, including the skin, and these populations change according to how we live, he says. "Ultimately what we want to do is compare disease and health," says Dr. Blaser. Keeping bacterial populations in our body stable may be part of staying healthy, he says.

10 to 1........hmmm. Then add the gut, CFS, brain, etc...and gene transfer. Wow. It's like a microcosm that's complicated as hell.

This is a very nice text book on the subject of staining techniques used to identify cell wall deficient pathogens. Heavy read, but it lets you know as to the extent inflammatory process lead to chronic disease and cancer forms.

Cell Wall Deficient Forms: Stealth Pathogens,... - Google Book Search: "Numerous infectious diseases are currently described as idiopathic, meaning that 'the cause is a complete mystery.' For many idiopathic diseases, the causes become clear when certain techniques are applied to the patient's blood or other tissues. Cell Wall Deficient Forms: Stealth Pathogens, Third Edition describes these techniques."

I'm intrigued with Dr. Finlay's research. Innate immunity is the key to recovery from chronic disease. He focuses on intracellular pathogens including Salmonella and E.coli bacteria and innate immunity.

I very much like the works of the Frangakis Group. I've come across the website for The Structural and Computational Biology Unit at EMBL. "The Structural and Computational Biology Unit pursues a few common large projects, such as trying to obtain a cell at molecular resolution, that require the input of the different skill sets in the Unit. At the same time it advances science in the different science disciplines it unites." Electron microscopy has come a long way over the past 20 years. The ability to integrate mulitple means of detection into one image is a powerful tool. Hopefully one day these guys will look at cell wall deficient forms and the like.

This work correlates to 'Technologies for the characterization and imaging of molecular machines' objective set out by the DOE Genomics: GTL departement. Being an engineer, I love machines and visualizing them.

I have linked to another photo here. There are others including Lida Mattman who understand the difficult-to-cultrure-and-isolate pleomorphic forms. Reminds me of quantum mechanics not being able to pin-point a specific quantity without interfering and consequently altering the outcome.
