One year after severe COVID-19, T cells persist against SARS-CoV-2

In a recently published article in the journal eBioMedicine, scientists have demonstrated that critically ill coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients are capable of generating durable memory T cell response against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) for more than one year after hospital discharge.

Elevated P2X7 receptor levels in COVID-19 patients correlate with disease severity

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv preprint server, researchers demonstrated that the soluble P2X7 receptor is increased in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) patients. They also showed that the elevated P2X7 receptors correlated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) severity.
