基因揭示慢性疲劳综合征(ME/CFS)病因新维度,治疗前景可期
基因遗传因素已被证实是导致慢性疲劳综合征(ME/CFS)发病的重要原因。这项突破性研究首次提供了强有力的证据,表明个体的基因构成显著影响其患上这种长期且常被忽视的疾病的风险。研究的深入进行,不仅揭示了ME/CFS的生物学基础,也为理解疾病的复杂性提供了关键线索。
这一发现标志着对ME/CFS认知上的重大飞跃。过往数十年,该病常被医学界低估和误解,但如今科学界正通过基因学研究,加速转变对该疾病的理解。科学家们正将这些新知识转化为开发创新疗法的思路,预示着未来可能出现更有效的治疗手段,为饱受此病折磨的患者带来希望。
Can science crack the mystery of ME? – podcast
Madeleine Finlay speaks to science editor Ian Sample about a new study of how genes affect people’s chances of developing ME/CFS, and to Nicky Proctor who has ME and took part in the research. She also hears from Beth Pollack, a research scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, about how scientific understanding of the illness has improved and how scientists are transforming this knowledge into ideas about future treatments
