The Relation of the Viral Structure of SARS-CoV-2, High-Risk
Condition, and Plasma Levels of IL-4, IL-10, and IL-15 in COVID-19
Patients Compared to SARS and MERS Infections
Abstract:Background:
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) has high mortality due to the widespread infection and the strong immune system reaction. Interleukins (ILs) are among the main immune factors contributing to the deterioration of the immune response and the formation of cytokine storms in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infections.
Introduction:
This review article investigated the relationship between virus structure, risk factors, and patient plasma interleukin levels in infect… Show more
