Anakinra, an anti-inflammatory drug being trialled to protect newborn brains from perinatal , may have even greater benefits than first thought. 🧠

Dr Rob Galinsky, Dr Sharmony Kelly and their team, working with Monash University and Monash Health, found the treatment not only supports myelin-producing cells, but also helps restore the brain connections essential for healthy brain function in babies at high risk of conditions such as .

“Previously our understanding of anakinra’s neuroprotective effects was limited to the cells in the brain that make myelin. But this work tells us the restorative effects extend to improving the development of neuronal connections and their function.”

Baby Louie was six months old when he caught the flu, and spent two weeks in hospital. He experienced extreme lethargy, constant high temperatures, rapid breathing and refusal to feed. Unfortunately, Louie's mother had not yet received the flu vaccination, meaning antibodies hadn't been passed on to protect him from the potentially fatal disease.
