A narrative review on the similarities and dissimilarities between myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (me/cfs) and sickness behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
It is of importance whether myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a variant of sickness behavior. The latter is induced by acute infections/injury being principally mediated through proinflammatory cytokines.

Exploring the Causal Links Between Toxoplasma gondii Infection and Risk of Brain Tumors: A Bidirectional Mendelian Randomization Analysis

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis demonstrated that genetic liability to malignant brain tumors was significantly associated with increased odds of Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) seropositivity, suggesting that individuals genetically predisposed to brain tumors may have a higher susceptibility to T. gondii infection.

Distinguishing Features of ILC2s During Type 2 Immune Responses

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 2, February 2026.
Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are tissue‐resident cells regulated by diverse signals often emanating from surrounding nonhematopoietic cells at barrier surfaces. Their effector cytokines determine tissue homeostasis at steady state and during type 2 immunity in allergies or worm infections.
