Pre-existing polymerase-specific T cells expand in abortive seronegative SARS-CoV-2
Leo Swadling, et al.
Individuals with potential exposure to SARS-CoV-2 do not necessarily develop PCR or antibody positivity, suggesting some may clear sub-clinical infection before seroconversion.
T-cells...
Pure speculation but maybe this line of research or the methods used in the paper to understand immune cell metabolic reprogramming via single-cell multiomics could eventually help explain whatever possible cellular metabolic changes that are triggered and persist in Long COVID and ME/CFS…...

Expression of CCR5 and its cognate ligands have been implicated in COVID-19 pathogenesis, consequently therapeutics directed against CCR5 are being...

I thought we could not conclude autoimmunity is likely out of the picture as long as we dont know how to target long lived plasma cells? I mean b-cells dont really matter at that point if im not mistanken, as the autoimmune plasma...

Excerpt:
In conclusion, our study shows that the PTPN22 rs2476601 and CTLA4 rs3087243 autoimmunity risk variants are more frequent in patients with ITO ME/CFS. This finding provides further evidence that there is a genetic...
