Richard Resnick: Welcome...
And what they find is a single-point mutation in a gene responsible for controlling programmed cell death. So the theory is that he's having some immunological reaction to what's going on -- to the food, essentially. And that's a natural reaction, which causes some programmed cell death, but the gene that regulates that down is broken.

has no idea what's going on but he says let's get this kid's genome sequence and what they find is a single point mutation in a gene responsible for controlling programmed cell death so the theory is that he's having some immunological reaction to what's going on - the food essentially right and that's a natural reaction which causes

Quote examples
Frank Macfarlane Burnet
Australian Scientist
Human insulin differs from other mammalian types by having a different C-terminal amino acid on the B chain. The immunological difference between beef insulin and human insulin, which is presumably responsible for the antigenicity of the former in some human beings, is thus limited to very a small portion of the whole molecule.

Quote examples
Anthony Fauci
American Scientist
What the immune system of man has in its advanced development is what we call immunological memory, so that once it sees something for the first time, when it sees it the second or the third time, it can respond against it in a way that's much more accelerated than when it sees it for the first time.

Australian Scientist
The production of antibody is not the only, nor I believe the most important, manifestation of immunity, but for reasons both historical and of experimental convenience, antibody is likely to remain the touchstone of immunological theory.

Some of the most significant advances in molecular biology have relied upon the methodology of genetics. The same statement may be made concerning our understanding of immunological phenomena.

I like to think that when Medawar and his colleagues showed that immunological tolerance could be produced experimentally, the new immunology was born.
