Shutdown of the Immune System

Chronic autoimmune diseases have their origin in several factors, one of these, the most important, is the hyperactivation of the toxic lymphocyte, this increased and uncontrolled activation causes damage to the organs and tissues themselves.

Increased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines prolongs the continued activation of the immune system.

The cytokine known as IL-6 and TNF are the main proteins that affect the musculoskeletal system directly and indirectly.

Its detection and control has been shown to be an important part of the treatment and control of the disease.

The counterpart to the activation of the toxic lymphocyte is the regulatory lymphocyte. This lymphocyte has the ability to secrete anti-inflammatory cytokines, which are intended to neutralize the pro-inflammatory cytokines. Conventional treatments aim to destroy lymphocytes, unfortunately the drugs are not selective, and their cell destruction is widespread.
