The Spike Protein and the Golgi Apparatus: A Mechanism for Induced Autoimmunity
The proteopathic Spike Protein fragments the Golgi Apparatus, likely inducing autoimmune disease.
--Walter M Chesnut
the autoimmune response bears very close resemblance to Sjogren’s Syndrome and Lupus. Why does this happen? The answer may be found in the Spike Protein’s (and other viral proteins) ability to fragment and destroy the Golgi Apparatus.
A remarkable finding 24h post SARS-CoV-2 infection was the following:
Quantitation of the frequency of Golgi dispersal revealed that by 24 h post-infection, the Golgi apparatus was intact in 2.2 ± 0.8% of the infected cells compared to 96.6 ± 0.8% in the uninfected cells.
