Possible discovery of mechanism behind mysterious COVID-19 symptoms (“Perfect, but scary, fibrils…from the amyloid-producing SARS-CoV-2 spike protein”)

In patients with serious and long-term COVID-19, disturbed blood coagulation has often been observed. Now, researchers have discovered that the body's immune system can affect the spike protein on the surface of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, leading to the production of a misfolded spike protein called amyloid.

The research team studies illnesses which are caused by misfolded proteins, of which Alzheimer's disease in the brain is the most well-known example. The researchers noted that there are many similarities between COVID-19-related symptoms and those which are observed in illnesses caused by misfolded proteins.

Using computer simulation, the researchers discovered that the coronavirus' spike protein contained seven different sequences which potentially could produce amyloid. They produced, among other things, so-called fibrils, which look like long threads when examined under an electron microscope.

"We have never seen such perfect, but scary, fibrils as these ones from the amyloid-producing SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and pieces thereof. The fibrils starting from the full-sized spike protein branched out like limbs on a body. Amyloids don't usually branch out like that," says Per Hammarström, professor.

The researchers at LiU mixed amyloid-producing protein pieces from the spike protein together with these bodily substances in test tubes, and saw that the fibrin coagulate which was then produced could not be broken down in the usual way by plasmin. This newly discovered mechanism may lie behind the production of blood clots in COVID-19. Disturbed blood coagulation is also seen in many amyloid-related illnesses.

"We can see that the spike protein, when affected by our own immune system, can produce amyloid structures, and that this can potentially affect our blood coagulation. We believe that this discovery is significant for many fields of research, and we hope that other researchers will examine the questions that it raises," says Sofie Nyström, associate professor

Not including the ping list with this, as there is nothing we can do today.

However, this looks super-engineered and it continues to show why China takes a “no COVID” approach. They know this creates long-term consequences.

There's a video on YouTube claiming they know who killed the most people. They blame the scientist who added lead to gasoline.

I have a feeling Fauci will soon displace him from the top of the list.

This Long Term Covid-19, are these people that have received the “vaccine “ and the subsequent “boosters”?

This is a fake discovery

It was deliberately created this way

Isn’t this exactly what was reported months ago (the description of the fibrils & clots, not the proteins), and more recently by morticians?

Fauci’s science experiment gets worse daily.

I’m not sure the scale is the same but phenotypically very similar.

Wouldn’t the vaccine cause the same issues since it uses the spike protein as well?

Definitely caused by an engineered virus.

The full article indicates that it does:
“We can see that the spike protein, when affected by our own immune system, can produce amyloid structures, and that this can potentially affect our blood coagulation.”

The article does not support that the vaccine is involved. Vaccines do not use the whole spike protein.

The actual Sars-Cov-2 whole virus in our body gives us this, which really means we need to get the infection out of us, as soon as possible.

Anyone who is actively infected can spread the virus, and for young people, vaccinated people and older adults with good immune systems that also didn't know they had COVID-19, they may be more inclined to have had the virus and not know they had it, meaning they may have wound up being more exposed to the amyloid issue than they realize, until their bodies eliminated it.

On its face, getting rid of the virus should stop the amyloid problem. Unfortunately, the world will continue to get rounds of new Sars-Cov-2 as it continues to mutate, so we might all have many more amyloid creation options ahead of us.

On the positive side, amyloids are not destructive like prions, which nearly magically create a terrible cascade of new prions, within us.

Odd that they describe it as similar to how Alzheimers works - and we know that they have been working on a “cure/vax” for it...

Perfect but scary fibrils... almost as if the virus was intentionally engineered...

I stand corrected on the mRNA vaccine's use of the full length spike protein. The mRNA sequence is the full length spike, which causes our cells to emit at some, and possibly all, of the whole spike protein.

From “Are There Hidden Genes in DNA/RNA Vaccines?” published in the journal “Frontiers in Immunology - Vaccines and Molecular Therapeutics:”

“The RNA-based vaccine formulations comprise lipid nanoparticles assembled around mRNA molecules coding for the full-length SARS-CoV-2 spike sequence (20). The transfected mRNA can be directly translated to make the spike protein.”

https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fimmu.2022.801915/full

This activity is supposed to occur for only a few days, if the vaccine was properly administered to the muscle.

Without a doubt, the live virus in us is expressing itself much more, until we get it under control, and for some, this certainly goes on longer, to a dangerous degree.
