Inflammation Phenotype Counteraction

Meaning

This is a sophisticated clinical strategy focused on identifying and reversing the specific, individual pattern of chronic inflammation—the ‘inflammation phenotype’—present in a patient. Instead of a general anti-inflammatory approach, counteraction involves detailed molecular analysis to determine the dominant inflammatory pathways, such as Th1, Th2, or Th17 dominance, or specific cytokine elevations. The goal is to deploy highly targeted interventions that precisely neutralize the patient’s unique inflammatory signature.
