Increase Your Natural Killer Cells: Buy This Book!

  The effect of mirthful laughter on stress and natural killer cell activity.  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12652882 CONCLUSION: Laughter may reduce stress and improve NK cell activity. As low NK cell activity is linked to decreased disease resistance and increased morbidity in persons with cancer and HIV disease, laughter may be a useful cognitive-behavioral intervention. Julian Lake's The Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Follies: Cartoons about an epidemic of lies . Now in print or on Kindle and free on Kindle Unlimited. The title of this collection of cartoons by Julian Lake was inspired by the The March of Folly , a stunning work by the late Barbara Tuchman. To try and explain why certain political disasters in history have occurred, Tuchman uses the very apt construct of "folly," which she defines as the "pursuit of policy contrary to the self-interest of the constituency or state involved."

HHV-6 and oligodendrocyte cell death.

Human herpesvirus type 6 indirectly enhances oligodendrocyte cell death.  http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/13129768 Abstract Accumulating evidence suggests that human herpesvirus type 6 (HHV-6) plays a pathogenic role in diseases of the central nervous system including multiple sclerosis (MS). Recent studies have indicated that HHV-6 DNA is detected with high frequency in MS lesions compared to normal-appearing white matter, implicating a role for HHV-6 in MS pathogenesis. It appears that T cells, which infiltrate into the brain in MS patients, and resident oligodendrocytes harbor HHV-6 virus in MS lesions. Because T cells infected with HHV-6 have elevated proinflammatory gene expression, we hypothesized that HHV-6 could be indirectly cytotoxic to glial cells, including oligodendrocytes. Supernatants from SupT1 cells infected with HHV-6 variant A (GS or U1102) or variant B (Z29) significantly reduced MO3.1 cell proliferation by 75% +/- 10%, 78% +/- 8% or 51% ...
