Methylene Blue and the Immune System: Mechanisms, Evidence, and Considerations
Mark
Reading Time: 12 minutes. Methylene blue modulates immunity by inhibiting iNOS/NO signalling, suppressing NF-κB and inflammasome activation, and reducing the production of IL-1β, IL-18, IL-6, and MCP-1. It stabilises mitochondrial respiration as an alternative electron carrier, lowers ROS, and boosts ATP, aiding immune cell energetics. It tempers macrophage/neutrophil activation, as well as MMP release. Clinically,…

Methylene Blue Mechanism of Action: How It Works in the Body
Mark
Reading Time: 11 minutes. Methylene blue is a redox-active electron shuttle. It accepts electrons from NADPH/NADH to form leucomethylene blue, which reduces Fe3+ methemoglobin to functional Fe2+ haemoglobin. In mitochondria, it bypasses impaired complexes, enhances cytochrome c oxidase efficiency, sustains ATP production, and limits superoxide production. It inhibits NO-stimulated soluble guanylyl cyclase, restoring vascular tone…
