Individuals with autosomal and X-linked recessive deficiency of IRAK-4 and MyD88 are more susceptible to developing hypoxemic COVID-19 pneumonia

Researchers identified that individuals with a deficiency of myeloid differentiation primary response 88 (MyD88) and interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 (IRAK-4) due to an autosomal recessive condition were highly susceptible to developing hypoxemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia when infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Why do some people develop persistent lung sequelae after severe COVID-19?

Clinical presentation following severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) ranges from mild self-limiting illness to severe respiratory failure. Many studies have analyzed the early acute phases of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19), but few focused on the longer-term sequelae following infection.

Experts investigate the role of IL-26 in COVID-19

Researchers at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden have shown that patients with acute COVID-19 infection have increased levels of the cytokine IL-26 in their blood. Moreover, high IL-26 levels correlate with an exaggerated inflammatory response that signifies severe cases of the disease. The findings, which are presented in Frontiers in Immunology, indicate that IL-26 is a potential biomarker for severe COVID-19.
