Christopher Exley, Louise Swarbrick, Rhomain K. Gherardi, and Francois-Jérôme Arthier Summary: Macrophagic myofasciitis and chronic fatigue syndrome are severely disabling conditions which may be caused by adverse reactions to aluminium-containing adjuvants in vaccines. While a little is known of disease aetiology both conditions are characterised by an aberrant immune response, have a number of prominent […]
Long-term persistence of vaccine-derived aluminum hydroxide is associated with chronic cognitive dysfunction.Long-term persistence of vaccine-derived aluminum hydroxide is associated with chronic cognitive dysfunction.
J Inorg Biochem. 2009 Nov;103(11):1571-8. Epub 2009 Aug 20. Couette M, Boisse MF, Maison P, Brugieres P, Cesaro P, Chevalier X, Gherardi RK, Bachoud-Levi AC, Authier FJ. Abstract Macrophagic myofasciitis (MMF) is an emerging condition, characterized by specific muscle lesions assessing long-term persistence of aluminum hydroxide within macrophages at the site of previous immunization. Affected […]
Macrophagic myofasciitis lesions assess long-term persistence of vaccine-derived aluminum hydroxide in muscle
Macrophagic myofasciitis (MMF) is an emerging condition of unknown cause, detected in patients with diffuse arthromyalgias and fatigue, and characterized by muscle infiltration by granular periodic acid-Schiff’s reagent-positive macrophages and lymphocytes. Itrracytoplasmic inclusions have been observed in macrophages of some patients….. We conclude that the MMF lesion is secondary to intramuscular injection of aluminum hydroxide-containing […]
