"Researchers have uncovered a previously unknown mechanism that regulates the immune response against parasites. During a parasitic infection, specific immune cells, known as virtual memory T cells (TVM), become activated and express a surface molecule called CD22, which prevents an excessive immune reaction. This discovery could help in better-controlling inflammation and improving immune responses to infections."
Another discovery of a mechanism that might be involved in ME. Since helminths do help some PWME, this might lead to an understanding of the mechanism of how t-cells affect ME severity.
