Researchers from the Sanford-Burnham-Prebis Institute of Medical Research (SBP) tested the "anorexia vaccine". This is reported by Discover. Scientists have discovered the cause of severe disorders in the digestive organs, because of which there is a rejection of food. It turned out that the inflammatory process is guilty of everything, which can be treated practically at any stage with the help of several injections. Studies have shown that inflammation arises from the gene of the gene RNF5 and protein S100A8. From their "behavior" depends the state of the microflora of the intestine. Failures in the work of some genes and protein content of S100A8 lead to abnormalities in the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract and cause rejection of food by the body. This can lead to a loss of up to 75% of body weight.

Scientists have created an experimental drug that proved effective in mice. In the near future, experts want to begin clinical trials of the "vaccine against anorexia" in humans.
