The role of peripheral serotonin in SARS‐CoV‐2 infectivity, COVID‐19 treatment and long COVID

Immunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
In this article, we discuss how SARS‐CoV‐2 infects the gastrointestinal tract, that enterochromaffin cells, the source of circulating serotonin, uniquely express viral entry receptors. We examine how this infection disrupts gut‐derived serotonin, contributing to gastrointestinal symptoms and disease severity, and link elevated plasma serotonin to COVID‐

Blood Immunopathology of Tuberculosis Patients Disrupts Monocyte‐Dependent T‐Cell Activation and Cytokine Expression

Immunology, EarlyView.
TB serum selectively disrupts monocyte‐dependent PHA T cell activation and cytokines associated with proliferation while preserving SEB T cell and Pam3/PHA monocyte cytokine responses. ABSTRACT Pulmonary tuberculosis in humans is characterised by features of immunopathology, which influence both antimycobacterial therapy and the long‐term prognosis. In

Immune endotypes in tuberculosis: Keys to decoding disease complexity

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global health challenge, with multi‐drug antibiotic regimens as the current standard of care. While effective at killing Mycobacterium tuberculosis, these treatments do not resolve persistent inflammation, prevent lung damage, or reverse immune dysregulation that contribute to poor outcomes and disease ...
