it turns out that it is not a new concept.

too many diagrams to post link? - - see "An Exciting New Approach to Autoimmune Diseases

ERIC TOPOL

SEP 17, 2023 in his ground truths substack.

here's the summary, as the piece itself is a tad bit complicated:

The approach of leveraging the liver to induce immune tolerance is intriguing and the new published work takes this a step further as a potential treatment in the future. There are still plenty of uncertainties, such as knowing the autoantigens in a particular individual or fully understanding the mechanism of tolerance induction. A tolerogenic vaccine is a huge challenge and orders of magnitude more complex than stimulating the immune system against a particular pathogen. There’s already a graveyard full of failed tolerogenic approaches and it’s certainly possible that glycosylation and the liver pathway could ultimately fail too. Nevertheless, I would deem it as an exciting approach—it it works, it will have a transformative impact on a wide array of self-destructive medical conditions for which we don’t yet have highly effective and safe means for preventing or treating.
