Identification of CD8 T-cell dysfunction associated with symptoms in myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) and Long COVID and treatment with a nebulized antioxidant/anti-pathogen agent in a retrospective case series
Brain, Behavior, & Immunity - Health(2023)
摘要
•Both Long COVID and ME/CFS are characterized by dysfunctional CD8 T-cells with severe deficiencies in their abilities to produce IFNγ and TNFα.•In a small Long COVID and ME/CFS case series, patients' immune deficiency and health improve during treatment period with a neubilzed antioxidant, anti-pathogen and immune-modulatory pharmacological agent.•This work provides evidence of a useful biomarker, CD8 T-cell dysfunction reminiscent of T cell exhaustion, that may assist diagnosis and have utility for tracking disease outcome during therapy, including response to a potential new treatment.
