Item description from seller

Paperback. Your immune system is at war right now. But here's the question nobody was asking: What stops it from destroying you? For decades, scientists believed they understood how our bodies tell friend from enemy. They were wrong. In this gripping account, discover how three brilliant minds from different corners of the world-Mary E. Brunkow in Seattle, Fred Ramsdell hiking through mountain ranges, and Shimon Sakaguchi working alone in Japan-uncovered a secret that changed medicine forever. They found the peacekeepers. The cells that stand guard inside you, constantly stopping your immune system from turning its deadly force against your own organs. Without them, your body would attack itself within weeks.From sick mice with flaking skin to children dying from mysterious diseases, from skeptical colleagues who said it was impossible to a phone call from Stockholm that one scientist missed because he was camping off-grid, this is the story of how peripheral immune tolerance was discovered-and why it matters for everyone fighting autoimmune disease, cancer, or hoping for a successful organ transplant. What you'll discover inside: - The genetic detective work that took seven years and ended with a single mutated gene- Why regulatory T cells are being called the immune system's "security guards"- How this research is creating new treatments being tested in over 200 clinical trials right now- The surprising connection between mouse genetics and human survival The human body keeps secrets. Three scientists revealed one of the biggest. If you've ever wondered how your immune system knows when to stop, or why some bodies attack themselves while others don't, this book will change how you see what's happening inside you right now.
