Subject: Lyme Legislative Forum March 28

I think it is best just to contact the
embassies of foreign nations and reveal
all the crimes the USDOJ refuses to prosecute,
and also advise them never to let any Americans
on their soil to experiment with their populations.
You can't say it wasn't an effective campaign
since Luc Montagnier is now following up on
why LYMErix failed. Obviously France read my
complaints. The Pasteur Institute of course has
visited ActionLyme.org...

1) Tolerance Induced by the Lipopeptide Pam3Cys [OspA] Is Due to
Ablation of IL-1R-Associated Kinase-11
"Although a single ligation of TLRs induces responses such as TNF
production, repeated ligation will lead to a loss of response, i.e.,
the cells become tolerant." http://www.jimmunol.org/cgi/content/full/173/4/2736
2) "Borrelia burgdorferi-Induced Tolerance as a Model of Persistence
via Immunosuppression" -
"In summary, we characterized tolerance induced by B. burgdorferi,
describing a model of desensitization which might mirror the
immunosuppression recently attributed to the persistence of Borrelia
in immunocompetent hosts."
http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?tool=pubmed&pubmedid=12819085
3) Mycobacterium tuberculosis LprG (Rv1411c): A Novel TLR-2 Ligand
That Inhibits Human Macrophage Class II MHC Antigen Processing1
http://www.jimmunol.org/cgi/content/full/173/4/2660
"Signaling through TLR-2 by lipoproteins may represent a double-edged
sword for host responses to chronic intracellular pathogens such as
M. tuberculosis. Short-term signaling through TLR-2 activates
macrophages and initiates acute inflammation that may help control
initial infection. ***In contrast, prolonged TLR-2 signaling in
macrophages results in down-regulation of certain critical immune
functions, such as MHC-II Ag processing. M. tuberculosis infects,
survives, and persists in macrophages. The ability of M. tuberculosis
to survive acute inflammation positions the bacilli to take advantage,
through secretion of lipoproteins such as LprG and LpqH, of this down-
regulation of macrophage immune function."***
^^^ This is of course exactly what Borrelia burgdorferi does.
And is why the HIV vaccines failed, too, in the way
that they did.
You just can't talk about this technical
stuff to Americans. They truly do not have
the brain structure, but this diminution
or undernurturance of the right brain's function
is learned or, um, acquired. This is why I
see no reason to talk to Congressmen for
heaven's sake. They're even stupider than
the rest of us... for the same reason-- "It's
ALL ABOUT MEEEEeeee!!"
