Here is a thought regarding why the innate immune system of Dr. Z's mice never attacked the virus in the brain after the few weeks it took to develop (Trevor's $64,000 question).
The virus was there before the IIS developed, and the IIS said to itself, "Hey, this thing is supposed to be here, I'll leave it alone". And the virus said, "Hey, IIS, I belong here, and I won't bother you. I'll just sit here in the corner of the castle. You go ahead and develop yourself to fight foreign invaders. We both know that I'm not foreign, I predated you." So the virus and the IIS lived happily ever after, until the virus received reinforcements in that second challenge.

Trevor,
I have been reading this paper again and again and am starting to get it, I hope.
One question comes to mind though.
From the way dr Zinkernagel presents his theory, I get the impression that what we call autoimmunity is just a theory.
Have there ever been foud antibodies to self? Or is autoimmunity as we knew it just a hypothesis ?
Sincerely, Frans

Antibodies are non-specific, as to their target. I am not aware of any definite 'antibodies to self'. In any case, if there was such a thing, the organism would quickly degenerate to a pile of blubber.

Thanks Trevor, that's clear.
dr Zinkernagel probably cracked another problem of autoimmunity, delivering a proven alternative.
What I was wondering about: I have heard some talk about HERV's maybe being part of the problem, or at least delivering more dna to the pea soup.
But if we consider that stem cells probably are infected, what remains of herv's? Are they indeed in our DNA, or do they get there in this first extremely vulnerable period of life?
Sincerey, Frans

Trevor, a much more important question on my mind is:
how is Interferon upregulated/activated?
I am looking at the following, the pathway of the TLR's:
- http://tinyurl.com/2kmsy7
It looks to me like the TLR's also have a direct link to the IFN's? And perhaps thereby: viruses also, as well as bacteria?
Sincerely, Frans

Vaccinations were mentioned frequently on this thread and so I've decided to post the following here.
I found the video on this site to be most interesting (note also at the 53 min mark, diseases linked to particular vaccines), although there are things said, particularly near the end that would be contrary to the MP: http://heartspring.net/flu_shot_side_effects.html
Also at this link you can find (directly under the video) an interesting article written by Dr. Alan Cantwell, Jr., entitled Are Vaccines Causing More Disease Than They are Curing?
While the MP may be the only real cure for many of us with Th1 illness, perhaps vaccinations may be one the leading causes of the infections that cause our illnesses.

Breast feeding may make some difference to the development of TH 1 disease but i found the speed of development in my 3 children had much more to do with sunlight exposure than any other thing. The son who developed the condition last was a computer junkie and rarely left his room for years. His outdoor loving sister and brother developed the disease 6 years before him....His sister was breastfed for a year......the longest BF child.
