Study from Vanderbilt University Medical Center links excessive fever to potential cancer risk, particularly through Th1 cell mitochondrial stress and DNA damage.
A study from Vanderbilt University Medical Center reveals that fever can enhance immune cell activity but also induces mitochondrial stress and DNA damage in certain T cells, particularly Th1 cells.
Published in Science Immunology, the research suggests that while moderate fever is beneficial, excessive heat may contribute to cancer development linked to chronic inflammation, which accounts for about 25% of cancer cases.
Further studies are needed to confirm these findings.
