A new published cell research study is suggesting that people of more direct African descent have a genetically stronger immune system than people of European descent. This of course has some clear advantages but also is not so good in other ways.
In fact, two studies are backing up these findings:
Atlanta Black Star Reported:
The first study, led by Luis Barreriro, assistant professor at the University of Montreal’s Department on Pediatrics, was conducted by extracting white blood cells from 175 Americans; 80 from African decent and 95 from European descent, DailyTech.com reports. Those cells were then injected with salmonella and listeria bacteria, as researchers monitored the response in a controlled lab environment.
Researchers found that almost 24 hours after infection, the white blood cells of Black Americans had destroyed the harmful bacteria three times faster than the white blood cells of European Americans did.
“The strength of the immune response was directly related to the percentage of genes derived from African ancestors,” Barriero said. “Basically, the more African you have in your genome, the stronger you’re going to respond to infection.
”
The second study, which analyzed genetic differences in RNA sequencing between African and European genomes, found that the introduction of Neanderthal variations into the European genome resulted in decreased pro-inflammatory immune responses to infections of people of European ancestry. Researchers from the Pasteur Institute in France suspect that the genetic variations between African-Americans and whites can be traced to the fact that Neanderthals helped colonize Europe, not Africa, before they went extinct.
Luis Barreriro was also very careful not to say that any immune system was ultimately better however this research goes a very long way to stabbing out the BS that blacks are genetically inferior to whites, something that isn’t said directly allowed but is suggested as belief throughout the medical field according by practise!
The problem with the stronger immune system is that auto immune diseases can be more likely to develop, these include Lupos and Chron’s.
Barreriro said:
“The genes and pathways we’ve identified constitute good candidates to explain differences we are seeing in disease between the two population groups,”
” … Our results demonstrate how historical selective events continue to shape human phenotypic diversity today, including for traits that are key to controlling infection.’”
Extremely interested and good news for day to day life! Keep yourself eating right and working out and you may be near indestructible!!
