    Long-term SARS-CoV-2-specific immune & inflammatory responses in individuals recovering from COVID-19 with & without post-acute symptoms, 2021, Peluso

    Highlights The magnitude of early CD4+ T cell responses correlates with severity of COVID-19 Prior lung disease correlates with higher SARS-CoV-2-specific CD8+ T cell responses PASC is associated with a decline in N-specific interferon-γ-producing CD8+ T cells Neutralizing capacity correlates...

    Sustained cellular immune dysregulation in individuals recovering from SARS-CoV-2 infection. Files et al. JCI (2020)

    https://www.jci.org/articles/view/140491 ScienceDaily News piece on paper here Of particular interest to long COVID research is they found immune dysregulation in non-hospitalized patients didn’t resolve quickly as well as activation and exhaustion markers increased during the...

    Clonally expanded CD8 T cells patrol the cerebrospinal fluid in Alzheimer’s disease (Jan2020) Gate, M.Davis & Wyss-Coray, Stanford)

    This paper on Alzheimer’s is interesting because Mark Davis (one of the authors) and team are using similar techniques on ME patients to look for targets for T-Cell expansion. For Alzheimer's they found TCR's responding to two separate Epstein–Barr virus antigens in CSF...

    An investigation into the modulation of T cell phenotypes by amitriptyline and nortriptyline, 2019, Conroy et al

    Possibly of interest, given how many patients can be on these types of drugs. Though I don't really understand what the implications might be myself without reading the full paper. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0924977X1931870X

    First evidence of immune response targeting brain cells in autism

    Preliminary but interesting. Autism has been researched far more than ME and somehow this had been missed entirely. I would really like to see research done on post-mortem ME brains and spinal cords. This is the reason the researchers named this disease and there doesn't seem to have been any...
