Consider the possibility/probability that the delivery system is the variable that causes a different reaction of squalene in the body. For
example, that which is required by the body is able to be sythesized and used by the human body (and other creatures); that which is injected, in
combination with other adjuncts, might well create a localized autoimmune response, and thus tend the body's autoimmune reaction toward ALL of the
body's squalene.
I'll go find a citation to support this. I'm fairly certain I saved it in one of the many files.
First, for parity, here's the
WHO's Report on
Squalene
Opinion of Dr. Mercola, as related on Milenniumark.com ... and yes, I realize Dr.
Mercola is selling "natural" products and is not, therefore, unbiased.
FDA/NIH/NIAID Workshop on
adjuvants -- beginning on page 66 and thereafter --
And then finally, to what extent do formulations and delivery systems impact on the
toxicity of adjuvants in vaccines. So, for example, if you have nano particles or ISCOMS that target antigen presenting cells, does this mitigate the
indiscriminate bystander activation of undesirable cells of the immune system.
American Journal of Pathology - Squalene Squalene is a cholesterol
precursor, which stimulates the immune system nonspecifically. We demonstrate that one intradermal injection of this adjuvant lipid can induce
joint-specific inflammation in arthritis-prone DA rats. Histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses revealed erosion of bone and cartilage, and
that development of polyarthritis coincided with infiltration of ß+ T cells....
Department of
Microbiology and Immunology - Tulane (squalene/Gulf War Syndrome) ..... The majority of symptomatic GWS patients had serum antibodies
to squalene...
.. and yes, I cherry-picked a few quotes -- my intention is to use them as teasers in the hope that others read the whole of the articles.
Just a few starters that I believe add evidence to the scales of measuring squalene reaction within the human body.
