We need to raise $350,000 for our Rapamycin pilot trial! We're not funding drug costs, but we're testing biomarkers 4 times per enrollee. And autophagy markers make this study unique! On #GivingTuesday put your donation on #ME treatment trials! #PEM #MECFS simmaronresearch.com/donate

Now our Simmaron Research Gunnar Gottschalk preprint is out that demonstrates why tetrahydrobiopterin biosnthesis is upregulated in ME+OI pathogenesis. researchsquare.com/article/rs-371…

voodoo Simmaron Research Center for Infection & Immunity Avik Roy NIH Rapamycin pilot study. Happening now in the US. It’s cheap (off patent and available). We hypothesize chronic mTOR activation drives autophagy disruption. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35487443/ Check out simmaron.com for details.

Who out there knew that inks used for permanent tattoos contain heavy metals, including mercury (red inks)? Before you got a tattoo? Do you really want this exposure? On top of microplastics, POPs and various xenobiotics? Here’s an easy (but worrying) read from Sci Am:

We continue to make good progress on the Rapamycin trial. I’m so thankful to the participants. You can’t do this kind of research without their guidance and participation. The quote below is one of many. Not everyone will respond. This isn’t my first rodeo. Our goal is biomarker
