@kimisgubbed @VirusesImmunity @KaminskiMed @Be_Kinderr @jenbrea @ahandvanish Hey! Well hypoxic tissue cld lead to lower O2 extraction, & infected tissue is often hypoxic. Most intracellular pathogens hijack metabolism of cells they infect & “push” host mitochondrial metabolism to anerobic glycolysis (O2 not being used for OXPHOS): ij.hapres.com/htmls/IJ_1341_…
@kimisgubbed @VirusesImmunity @KaminskiMed @Be_Kinderr @jenbrea @ahandvanish 2/ In fact many intracellular #pathogens either directly or indirectly enhance hypoxia inducible factor (HIF-1) stability. HIF-1 is a key glycolytic regulator/transcription factor whose stability reduces reliance on OXPHOS by initiating glycolytic #metabolism
@kimisgubbed @VirusesImmunity @KaminskiMed @Be_Kinderr @jenbrea @ahandvanish 3/ With that in mind @VirusesImmunity, it was interesting that in your brain organoid model, you showed SARS-CoV-2 capable of infecting neurons, where it induced a locally hypoxic environment as measured by staining for HIF-1 alpha: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33433624/
As soon as we finish in Theatre we have planned a little jaunt to see an actual live volcanic eruption. Nothing out of the ordinary to see here! 🇮🇸 🇬🇧 #nerves&volcanoes
Off to see the 🌋 🎉. 😀🤩
So… I want to tell you about my experience of seeing a real volcano. It feels a bit indulgent to go on but I can’t fit this into one tweet- Today I saw a volcano. …
Thanks @DrDavidACox for interviewing me for this article on #LongCovid. There’s also great info in the article on research showing #viral RNA in the brains of patients w/ post-SARS syndrome, and viral reservoirs in patients w/ post-Ebola Syndrome: bbc.com/future/article…
2/ The article reads: “Amy Proal, a microbiologist who runs the @polybioRF which studies the causes of chronic inflammatory diseases, believes that small amounts of #pathogens that linger beyond the reach of the immune system in remote pockets of the body...
3/ “...known as reservoirs or anatomical sanctuaries, are at least partially responsible for a whole range of post-infectious syndromes. This includes long #Covid, but also a number of mysterious illnesses which have puzzled scientists for decades, such as chronic Lyme disease..
Open water swimmers and winter people all, do you wonder how you feel cold? Well it’s the wonder of nerves again - let me tell you some nerve nerdy stuff... #openwaterswimming #thestoics #sensorynerve #cold

Cool is a pleasurable feeling and warm too but hot and cold break into painful feelings. This appreciation of temperature is a protective function of nerves but how does it all work? How does your body tell your brain about the word outside?
If we step into a lake or river in winter the free nerve endings in the skin can tell us what temperature the water is. This is possible between -10 and 60°C in mammals. How this works is a very clever story and is linked with 🌶 and mints! Keep reading.. 🧊
4 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT #TETANUS
1. Enters your body through wounds
2. Makes muscle contract painfully
3. Can kill in days if no treatment
4. No cure, so better to PROTECT YOURSELF!

Tetanus is caused by a germ called Clostridium tetani.
This germ produces a dangerous #toxin that makes your muscles painfully contract on their own & become rigid.
This man had neck stiffness & lockjaw from tetanus;

Tetanus germ lives mainly inside the soil & animal feces. It lives there for years.
When it has a chance, it enter your body through:
- Wounds contaminated with soil or feces, or
- Punctures by nonsterile needles (like some injecting illegal drugs, tattooing or body piercing)

1\. THIS CHILD & THIS MAN DIED OF #TETANUS!
It is a terrible disease that enters your body through #wounds & can kill in days if nothing is done fast!
