Study examines link between immune dysfunction and metabolism in ME
An international collaboration of scientists, including Fane Mensah, Dr Jo Cambridge and Australian Dr Chris Armstrong investigated the relationship between CD24 expression and B cell maturation and found CD24 expression on B cells is related to energy metabolism and that its role differs between B cell subsets.
‘CD24 Expression and B Cell Maturation Shows a Novel Link with Energy Metabolism: Potential Implications for Patients With Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome’ by Mensah et al was published in Frontiers of Immunology in October 2018. Mensah works at the Centre of Rheumatology Research at University College London and collaborates internationally. He visited Australia earlier this year and was profiled in ‘Meet the Scientists: Fane Mensah’.
