Potential Bartonella Reactivation Associated With Long COVID
A case study reported that Bartonella henselae infection appeared to reactivate following acute COVID-19, suggesting that immune changes associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection may influence the clinical behavior of latent bacterial infections.
A Specific Immune Pathway May Be Keeping the Immune System Overactive in Long COVID
A study of people with Long COVID found ongoing disruption of the immune system’s complement pathway, with especially high activity in the lectin pathway compared to healthy individuals who had recovered from COVID-19.
Virus-induced endothelial senescence as a cause and driving factor for ME/CFS and long COVID: mediated by a dysfunctional immune system
A new theory suggests some viral infections may push blood vessel cells into a long-term stress state, offering a possible explanation for the lasting symptoms seen in ME/CFS and Long COVID.
Patients Suffering From Post-COVID-19 Syndrome Feature Enhanced Antibody Reactivity Towards Specific Linear Epitopes Within EBV EBNA1.
Research shows that Post COVID patients had stronger immune responses to certain parts of the Epstein-Barr virus protein, suggesting a possible link to Long COVID.
