Interesting finding if you read into the study in a bit more detail.

They tested a range of milk types including A2 milk to see which triggered an immune response (i.e. leading to greater inflammation etc.) in MS patients. While the headline finding was that cow milk caused greater immune response than plant-based, they actually also found that A2 Milk was an exception to this.

From the journal article https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fimmu.2023.1202006/full

"On the other hand, the overall antibody reactivity to A2 (cow) milk was significantly lower in the MS cohort. Taken together (Figures 1, 2), therefore, one may speculate that in MS patients the overall reactivity to bovine milk that was observed is, at least partially, due to an elevated IgG response to the A1 β-casein. This would also explain the low OD values to the A2 milk which does not contain the allergen and antigen A1 β-casein. Future studies focusing on adsorption assays using A1 vs. A2 β-casein would validate this observation."

Also worth noting this is a German study with no commercial funding or affiliation with A2M.
