COVID-19-related myocarditis and cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathways

Abstract: Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), is currently in a pandemic outbreak and has become a global health issue. In addition to primarily involving the respiratory system, myocarditis is considered an important and fatal lesion in patients with COVID-19. However, effective therapeutic methods are currently lacking. The cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (CAP) has been demonstrated to suppress pro-inflammatory cytokine production and control in… Show more

“…Also, it was speculated that the spike protein effects on multiple autoantibody pathways which may be related to the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway. [10] On the other hand, a negative nucleocapsid antibody test result does not conclusively rule out the possibility of natural infection. [4,10]…”

“…Increased circulating clotting levels have been widely reported in COVID-19 patients undergoing dialysis. In addition, elevated myocardial damage, similar to myocardial infarction, is a possible outcome of myocardial tissue microangiopathy and myocarditis in patients with COVID-19 [76] . Therefore, hypercoagulation might spread acute tubular necrosis to cortical necrosis and thus, induce irreversible kidney damage in severe COVID-19 cases.…”

“…The CAP may be more relevant in a SARS-2-CoV infection compared with other physiological mechanisms because further evidence indicates that the vagus nerve plays a relevant role in pulmonary inflammation (dos Santos et al, 2011 ). A detailed description of the neuroimmune mechanisms related to a possible CAP and its impairment in the case of this infection can be found elsewhere (Leitzke et al, 2020 ; Liu W. et al, 2020 ). In SARS-CoV-2 infections, young patients generally experience mild symptoms, while fatal interstitial pneumonia is more frequently reported in older patients.…”
