Honored to share our Nature paper. In >1,000 hospitalized COVID-19 patients, ~50% had reactivation of dormant viruses creating a "dysvirosis" linked to worse acute COVID-19 and Long COVID outcomes. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… #LongCOVID #DellMed

Excited to share our study in 977 #LongCOVID patients, identifying persistent anti-ganglioside antibodies as key in LC neuropathy, providing evidence for autoimmune etiology and IVIG benefits in reversing symptoms. #Neuropathy #AutoimmuneDisease @colemag9 medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Analysis of 977 Long COVID Patients Reveals Prevalent Neuropathy and Association with Anti-Gangli...

Background Long COVID (LC) is a novel condition that is characterized by persistent symptoms that last from months to years following a SARS-CoV-2 infection. While LC symptoms vary widely, neuropathy...

You would be forgiven for thinking this is a flower... Many insects wouldn’t be this orchid mantis is a perfect example of aggressive mimicry, camouflage in which a predator's appearance lures in prey Motionless on plants, waiting for prey to arrive 1/

Molecular mimicry as a mechanism of viral immune evasion and autoimmunity

Nature Communications - Viruses often evolve molecular mimicry with host proteins for immune evasion. Here the authors assess short linear mimicry of 134 viruses to find abundance of such mimicry...
