Specialized Pro-resolving Mediators (SPMs): The Resolution of Inflammation
Chronic inflammation is at the root of all diseases. New research discusses how pro-resolving mediators are the key to the resolution of inflammation.
Chronic Inflammation
These titles examine the genetic underpinnings of inflammatory mediators and the body’s regulation of inflammation, which often ties into chronic disease.
NLRP3: Genetics Variants that Increase Chronic Inflammation
What makes people more susceptible to chronic inflammatory diseases? The root of the over-activation of inflammation for some people could be the NLRP3 inflammasome.
Back Pain: Genetics, Root Causes, and Solutions
For some people, back pain is a daily occurrence that drastically affects their quality of life. For others, it may be an intermittent nagging problem, often without rhyme or reason. Your genes play a role in whether disc degeneration gives you back pain.
Chronic Inflammation: Causes and Natural Solutions
Take a deep dive into the causes of chronic inflammation and learn how to target specific inflammatory pathways to reverse or prevent chronic disease.
Is Inflammation Causing Your Depression and Anxiety? The Science Behind the Link
Discover why inflammation causes depression and how your genetic variants in inflammatory genes may play a role in depression or anxiety.
Fatigue: Root Causes, Genetics, Personalized Solutions
Are you always tired even when you know you slept well? Discover more about the newest research on fatigue and how genetic susceptibility plays a part for some people.
TNF-alpha: Inflammation, Chronic Diseases, and Genetic Susceptibility
Discover the role of TNF-alpha in inflammation and its link to chronic diseases. Learn how genetic variants affect TNF-alpha levels and explore natural solutions for chronic inflammation.
IL-13: Elevating Th2 Immune Response and Asthma risk
Interleukin-13 (IL-13) is a signaling molecule important in the immune response. Excessive IL-13 can tip you toward a Th2-dominant immune response, and variants increase the risk of allergies and asthma.
Tendinitis (Tendonitis): Genes, Inflammation, and Targeted Solutions
Do you have problems with your tennis elbow, rotator cuff, knees, or Achilles tendon? Discover how your genes influence the risk of having tendon problems.
IL-17: Chronic Inflammation & Autoimmune Risk with IL17A, IL17F
The IL17 gene codes for an important part of the immune system. When it is overactive, IL-17 can contribute to the risk of autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease.
HMGB1 gene: inflammatory response protein important in sepsis and COVID-19
The HMGB1 protein has a unique role in activating the inflammatory response pathways. Increased HMGB1 levels will call up the troops for a big response to an infection. Discover how genetic variants of this protein vary the risk of cancer, inflammation, and sepsis to name a few.
Increased Inflammation and IL-17A Genetic Variants
Some people have a more sensitive immune system and are more prone to inflammatory reactions. We need a balance in the body between fighting off pathogens and not having too much of an inflammatory response. Learn more about what triggers inflammation and how your genes play a part.
