Scientists have been awarded the Nobel Prize for a major breakthrough in understanding how to stop the immune system from turning against the body itself.Their discovery explains key mechanisms behind autoimmune diseases, where the body mistakenly attacks its own healthy cells. This insight could transform how conditions like lupus, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis are treated in the future.By learning how to regulate an overactive immune response, researchers have opened the door to more targeted and effective therapies that may reduce suffering for millions of people worldwide. The discovery also holds promise for advancing treatments beyond autoimmune disorders, including potential applications in cancer research. The achievement marks a major milestone in modern medicine and offers new hope for long term disease control.THINGS
