An optimistic article from the journal Nature about emerging therapies for autoimmune diseases.

Nature: Can autoimmune diseases be cured? Scientists see hope at last

Quote

After decades of frustration and failed attempts, scientists might finally be on the cusp of developing therapies to restore immune ‘tolerance’ in conditions such as diabetes, lupus and multiple sclerosis.

Not to seem skeptical, but I've seen similar articles published over the past 25 years, including ones that claimed a gluten-free diet might be a thing of the past once a drug got FDA approval. I'm still hopeful, but I'm also getting older! 😉

      Help with genetic testing

      By RMJ · Posted

      HLA-DQ2 is NOT a continuum 2.01 to 2.99, but I don’t understand HLA genetics well enough to explain it further.  It is not just one gene that is either this or that.

      Help with genetic testing

      Okay, I'm taking a guess here. We are used to hearing in layman terms that having either the HLA-DQ2 or the HLA-DQ8 gene, either heterozygous or homozygous, presents the possibility of developing active celiac disease. So, I'm guessing that the HLA-DQ2 gene is actually a range of variants (2.01-2.99) with HLA-DQ 2.5 being in the centerpiece of the range. I'm also guessing that "permissive" is equivalent to "possessing the possibility" to develop active celiac disease and does not address the issue of hetero vs. homozygus per se. But the fact that 2.01,2.01 is a couplet may indicated homozygousity? All wild guesses.

      I received the results that my child has the genes for celiac disease (she is still undergoing testing and it has been complicated). Can someone explain if this is homozygous HLA DQ 2.5 or not? The interpretation just says permissive for celiac disease. Thank you! DQ Alpha 1  05:01, 5 DQ Beta 1 02:01, 02:01 DQ serologic equivalent 2,2

      Burning sensation when I wake up

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I am taking thiamine hydrochloride. It's been over a week, and the burning seems to be gone. I am also taking a lower dose B complex with iron. Thank you so much for your help!

      No. It's over the counter. Readily available on Amazon. Good bio availability but shelf-life is not as good as thiamine mononitrate which is the most common form found in over the counter vitamin products.
