Key Discovery Solves Long-Standing Baffling Mystery of Gulf War Syndrome in Veterans

Researchers have identified that veterans suffering from Gulf War Syndrome (GWS) exhibit faulty cell functions due to exposure to hazardous agents during their service.

This landmark study, revealing dysfunction in transient receptor potential ion channels responsible for calcium transport in cells, offers a scientific explanation for the varied symptoms experienced by these veterans. The findings promise new pathways for treatment and a better understanding of this complex condition.

Breakthrough Discovery in Gulf War Illness Research
In a world-first discovery, researchers at Griffith University have discovered faulty cell function in veterans suffering from Gulf War Syndrome (GWS), also known as Gulf War Illness (GWI), is likely caused by intense exposure to hazardous biological and chemical agents during war service.
