    These are what doctors try to avoid in a patient who is infected and undergoing an immune response. Sometimes the body's response to infection makes the patient worse--the so-called cytokine cascade.

    But cytokines and the mechanism that controls their production and metabolism, are um, important.
    Without cytokines, if you aren't sick and reading this, you wouldn't care. You wouldn't care about much at all, I guess, including your own survival.

    Is there an actual point that you wished to discuss?

    sounds like your projecting more than discussing
    can you be more descriptive about what you mean rather than what you feel ?

    "if" you are saying
    "without cytokines you would be dead"

    i get it
    but ...
    the point is people have al sorts of issues and controlling that by being able to switch it off, on turn it up or down
    would mean people with organ transplants
    shock patients/ burn victims
    various other medical situations
    the person life for that moment, would be saved

    A.I.D
    various neurological diseases
    MS
    etc etc
    all have various impacts in this way due to the bodys ability to eat(destroy) its self in some way

    being able to find Pandoras dashboard switches would mean saving many lifes
    and would allow for medication development to vastly extend the lifes of various chronic illnesses
    including things more commonly known like
    covid19
    flu
    and a few other issues

    personally
    and this is off the record
    so i never sad it
    and its a personal opinion

    i think the immune response and understanding it is a critical key to addiction processes and understanding how the body drives the brain etc etc etc pain medication etc ...

    What may be of interest is that microtubules play a major role in the study of cytokines and immunology in general.

    See my thread "Is consciousness to be found in microtubules"

    Do not, I repeat, do not attempt to infect other threads with your pseudoscience thread Write4u.

    Shall I keep social distance and wear a mask so that I won't infect others with my viral pseudoscience? Or do you want me locked up in isolation (house arrest) until I am no longer a threat to the greater scientific community?
