Study Summary

The scientists working on this study want to use blood samples to identify components in blood, such as protein, lipids and their breakdown products to determine if they can be used for diagnosing Gulf War Illness (GWI). An additional goal is to examine the relationship of changes in these markers with the exposures and symptoms associated with GWI. The Scientists will also prepare RNA and DNA from the blood samples for genetic analyses of certain proteins known to increase the risk for GWI. This information will be one of the factors included in the analysis of results from the protein studies.

Primary Outcome

Determine if lipids specific to inflammation, mitochondria and peroxisome function can be objective biomarkers of the CNS pathology of GWI.
