A Vaccine That Makes Your Immune System ... Forget?

The video discusses the immune system's role in fighting diseases and the challenges posed by autoimmune diseases. It introduces the concept of inverse vaccines, which aim to make the immune system forget harmful responses to self-antigens. The liver's role in immune decision-making is highlighted, with research focusing on sugar tags that direct antigens to the liver for immune modulation. Experiments on mice show promising results in preventing type one diabetes and multiple sclerosis. Early human trials are underway, indicating potential future applications of inverse vaccines in treating autoimmune diseases.
