That's a bit of a tease!
Wouldn't happen to involve mitochondrial microtubules?
If I remember correctly GWI researcher Beatrice Golomb was interested in the effects of organophosphates etc on microtubules and how this effects mitochondrial energy production (in neurons). I happened to mention a thread on PR where counterintuitively, some people seemed to improve while (co-incidentally) using a vermicide drug which should work by interfering with microtubule function but perhaps in low doses may have the opposite effect (sorry I can't recall the details at the mo).
PS - Sorry for the de-rail.
Discovery of quantum vibrations in 'microtubules' inside brain neurons supports controversial theory of consciousness
Summary:
A review and update of a controversial 20-year-old theory of consciousness claims that consciousness derives from deeper level, finer scale activities inside brain neurons. The recent discovery of quantum vibrations in "microtubules" inside brain neurons corroborates this theory, according to review authors. They suggest that EEG rhythms (brain waves) also derive from deeper level microtubule vibrations, and that from a practical standpoint, treating brain microtubule vibrations could benefit a host of mental, neurological, and cognitive conditions.
