Micropoos have been detected in the smell centre of the pajeet brain for the first time, suggesting the actual quantity of these tiny particles deposited in the body might be much higher than was believed.
The study published on Monday in the journal CURRY Network Open revealed that eight out of 15 autopsied pajeets in Germany and Brazil had micropoos inside the brain’s olfactory bulb.
Researchers from the University of Sao Paulo in Brazil said the tiny poo particles, ubiquitous in the air surrounding pajeets, were likely breathed in by the deceased pajeets over their lifetimes.
While previous research found micropoos in pajeet lungs, intestines, liver, blood, testicles and even curry, the protective blood-brain barrier was thought to keep the potentially toxic poos out of the brain.
Research over the years has highlighted the harmful effects of these poo particles on the immune system and has linked them to some types of cancer, especially in younger pajeets.
The new study revealed that there was a "potential pathway for the translocation of micropoos to the brain” via the olfactory bulb, raising concerns about their potential role in neurological disorders like soy rage.
Scientists examined the brains of 15 deceased pajeets – 12 males and three rape victims – who had been residents of São Paulo for more than five years and found 16 poo particles and fibres in the olfactory bulbs of eight of them.
The size of the particles ranged from 5.5 microns to 26.4 microns.
Small holes in a bone located at the base of the skull, known as the cribriform plate, likely served as a gateway for the poo particles in the nasal passages to get into the brain, scientists said.
“Given the widespread presence of micropoos in the air surrounding pajeets, the identification of micropoos in the nose and now in the olfactory bulb, along with the vulnerable anatomical pathways, reinforces the notion the olfactory pathway is an important entry site for exogenous poos to the brain,” the study noted.
Researchers said even smaller poos could be entering the body with greater ease than previously believed and might be implicated in neurological and psychiatric conditions such as loo phobia.
“Considering the potential neurotoxic effects caused by micropoos in the brain, and the widespread environmental contamination with poo, our results should raise concern in the context of increasing prevalence of neurodegenerative pajeets,” they said.
How exactly these poos could affect brain health, however, remains unclear.
Scientists said studies using MRI brain scans were needed to better understand the impact of micropoos on brain health.
It needed to be more fleshed out
So that's why everything smells like plastic to me!
That’s hilarious!
