Looking back and trying to spot early signs About 10 / 15 years ago I had quite a few unexplained cases of uncontrollable shaking, I went to the dr and he called it rigers but otherwise was not very helpful. I didn't think much of it at the time as I was working hard in a cold workshop. But looking back now could it have been an early sign. Not that it matters now, I am where I am. Just interested if anyone else has a similar story

I’m so frustrated. I feel like I go on apps and I try to reach out to many different places to see if I can find help or support and I feel like I’m just hitting a wall over and over again I’m getting to the point where I feel like I’m gonna take things in to my own hands and just end it all because I really think people think that I lying when I say, I can’t find help

Good news for us all. Finding immune cells that stop a body from attacking itself wins medicine NobelThe 2025 prize goes to 3 researchers who ID'd T-regs and their role in autoimmune diseaseMary Brunkow (left), Fred Ramsdell (middle) and Shimon Sakaguchi (right) have won the Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine for discovering regulatory T cells, which keep the immune system from attacking the body.NIKLAS ELMEHED © NOBEL PRIZE OUTREACHYou have three complimentary articles left Work on peacemakers in the immune system won the 2025 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine.The peacemakers are regulatory T cells, a type of immune cell that calms the immune system after it has finished fighting infection or healing a wound.These special T cells also prevent the immune system from attacking the body. If they fail in this mission, autoimmune disorders or damaging inflammation can result. These cells are also important to prevent rejection of the fetus during pregnancy. Shimon Sakaguchi of Osaka University in Japan first discovered these important cells, also known as T-regs, in 1995. Sakaguchi shares the prize, worth 11 million Swedish kronor (over $1.1 million), with Mary Brunkow of the Institute for Systems Biology in Seattle and Fred Ramsdell, a cofounder of Sonoma Biotherapeutics, a company based in San Francisco and Seattle. The Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm announced the prize October 6.Brunkow and Ramsdell tracked down a mutation that caused a fatal autoimmune disease in male mouse pups while working at Celltech Chiroscience in Bothell, Wash., in the 1990s. The mutation turned out to disable a gene called FOXP3. That gene is important for T-reg development, Sakaguchi later discovered. Without it, wayward immune cells from causing harm in the body. Mutations in FOXP3 are also responsible for an autoimmune disease called IPEX in people, the American duo revealed in 2001.Scientists are learning to harness T-regs to prevent rejection of transplanted organs and treat autoimmune disorders, food allergies, cancer and other conditions in which the immune system is overactive or directed against the wrong thing.Questions or comments on this article?
