Steroids only reduce inflammation short-term

Why This Matters for Health and Performance Understanding intrinsic factor physiology is crucial for recognizing conditions that can lead to B12 deficiency, including pernicious anemia (autoimmune destruction of parietal cells), gastric surgery, chronic PPI use, and various gastrointestinal disorders

Additionally, immune-related pathways were activated in the long term, with a short-term upregulation of inflammatory markers, such as interleukin ( IL)-6 and IL-18 , although the levels of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) remained stable, indicating that not only complex inflammatory stimuli, but also oxidative stress responses can disrupt ECM homeostasis
