COVID‐19 immunopathology: From acute diseases to chronic sequelae

alexandrossfakianakis shared this article with you from Inoreader

ABSTRACT

The clinical manifestation of COVID-19 mainly targets the lung as a primary affected organ, which is also a critical site of immune cells activation by SARS-CoV-2. However, recent reports also suggest the involvement of extrapulmonary tissues in COVID-19 pathology. The interplay of both innate and adaptive immune responses is key to COVID-19 management. As a result, a robust innate immune response provides the first line of defense, concomitantly, adaptive immunity neutralizes the infection and builds memory for long-term protection. However, dysregulated immunity, both innate and adaptive, can skew towards immunopathology both in acute and chronic cases. Here we have summarized some of the recent findings that provide critical insight into the immunopathology caused by SARS-CoV-2, in acute and post-acute cases. Finally, we further discuss some of the immunomodulatory drugs in preclinical and clinical trials for dampening the immunopathology caused by COVID- 19.
