“…Growth factors (GFs), such as hepatocyte‐nerve‐epidermal‐fibroblast‐insulin‐like colony‐stimulating vascular endothelial GFs; cytokines or chemokines like IL‐1,2,3,4,6,8,10 and IFN (interferon)‐γ, TNF‐α, TGF (transforming growth factor)‐β; metabolic compounds such as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate hydrogen (NADPH), nitric oxide (NO); antioxidants like superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, glutathione peroxidase; amino acids, such as alanine, arginine, histidine, tyrosine; vitamins and trace elements like zinc, copper, iron, selenium, manganese; and other components, such as collagen, elastin, carotenes, can be summarized as biologically active components in the placenta 40 . Each component has important roles in different functions; also it would be more appropriate to study more closely the antiviral activity of placenta extracts for COVID‐19.…”
