Something is causing the inflammation, then the inflammation causes something else. In that case you wouldn’t treat the inflammation, you would treat the cause of the inflammation.
We already kind of know how it works! The Alzheimer’s plaques are a malformed version of a brain protecting protein. It’s production can be triggered by inflammation. The protein is supposed to help you in case of emergency, but if you have Alzheimer’s, it forms into plaques and makes your neurons die.
Perhaps. Causality has yet to be determined in that case, it seems.
But anyway, I swear I have seen several articles about studies in the last few years that indicate inflammatory responses can cause other problems. (No just covid).
Inflammation is a symptom, not a condition on its own. It being related to Alzheimer’s means there is a potentially single underlying cause
They say things are caused by inflammation all the time though, is that a euphemism?
No, it means it’s a chain.
