How Helminths Help Despite Elevated IL-10 in Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

High IL-10 is not the same as healthy IL-10. Helminths restore immune regulation in multiple sclerosis by expanding functional IL-10–producing regulatory B cells and activating complementary anti-inflammatory pathways. This coordinated network restrains pathogenic Th1/Th17 responses, enhances neuroprotection, and rebalances IL-10 signaling in MS.

Why Some People Respond to Helminthic Therapy and Others Do Not

Helminthic therapy shows about a 75% response rate, but outcomes vary widely. Success depends on condition type, immune baseline, genetics, microbiome, dose, and consistency. Every immune system is unique, so not all patients respond the same way.
