IL18 encodes interleukin-18, a cytokine that can promote interferon-gamma responses in the appropriate immune context. Its receptor includes components encoded by IL18R1 and IL18RAP.

IL1B encodes interleukin-1 beta, a cytokine involved in inflammatory responses and fever. Its production and activation are regulated processes, not simply an on/off consequence of having a common SNP.

IL5 encodes interleukin-5, a cytokine important to eosinophil growth, survival and activation. Eosinophils are involved in selected allergic and other inflammatory conditions.

Explore folate, vitamin B9, one-carbon metabolism, anemia, homocysteine, SLC19A1, and differences between folate forms and transport pathways.

Explore skin-barrier symptoms, acantholysis, cytokine networks, and redox management.

Explore motor and vocal tics, brain circuits, dopamine, GABA, histamine pathways, behavioral therapies, and treatment and outlook.

Dr. Purser’s subscriber report on IL-5, cytokine genetics, and the topics discussed in his homozygous IL5 variant report.

Explore interleukin-18, caspase-1, the NLRP3 inflammasome, interferon-gamma, and related immune pathways.

Explore rs2910397, rs2637125, steroid sulfation, DHEA, DHEAS, bile acids, and hormone and liver pathways.

Dan Purser MD interviews a patient with a brutal sarcoidosis case involving sky-high SIL2R cytokines, GI sarcoid, heart damage, and years of being dismissed by doctors. After spleen removal, repeated ER visits, and nitroglycerin dependence, he finally found answers. Learn how cytokine testing and the VARS Trio (Glutathione + SOD + Catalase) led to rapid improvement — going from bedridden fear to playing with grandkids in just weeks. This episode highlights the power of root-cause medicine for complex inflammatory conditions and offers hope for those who feel lost in the system. Perfect for listeners dealing with sarcoidosis, chronic inflammation, autoimmune issues, or cytokine-related symptoms. #Sarcoidosis #Cytokines #VARS #PurserWellness #ChronicIllnessRecovery Follow Dr. Purser!

What if one overlooked lab marker is telling you more about your health than you realize? Most people have never heard of homocysteine. Yet when homocysteine levels are elevated, it may signal that critical pathways involving methylation,

Dr. Dan Purser here with an important update from Purser Wellness. Earlier this week we were deplatformed on a major platform right after discussing groundbreaking findings from our homocysteine research — particularly its connections to ASD, ADHD, cytokine issues, and inflammatory conditions like polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR). Despite losing access to our old page (and nearly 200,000 followers), we’re back stronger with a brand new official page! ✅ Follow our new official Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/purserwellness We’re keeping things focused and continuing our important work on root-cause wellness, intracellular nutrient deficiencies, genetics, glutathione/SOD balance, and more. ### Where to Stay Connected: - Substack (Daily research articles & in-depth content): https://substack.com/PurserWellness or https://danpursermd.substack.com - YouTube – Live streams and full recordings will continue here (plus TikTok, Instagram, and podcast platforms) Dr. Purser’s message is clear: We will not stop the research. “I’ll quit when I die… and maybe not even then.” If you’ve been following our work on homocysteine, MTHFR, cytokine problems, hormone optimization, and functional medicine protocols, please: - Like and follow the new Facebook page - Subscribe to Substack - Share this video with friends and patients who need this information Thank you for your incredible support during this transition.
