Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) Infection and Pathogenicity: The Roles of Cell Death and Autophagy
Latif Reshi
Abstract:SARS-CoV-2, also known as COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019), is a serious threat to public health, the global economy, and society at large. In addition to inducing immunological and inflammatory reactions, viral infections also lead to programmed cell death in infected cells, which is essential for preserving regular cell function. Several cell death pathways have been better characterized over the last few decades. It is widely accepted that both cell autophagy and death are critical for preserving host ho… Show more
