Background. Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) affects not only the alveoli but also the central nervous system. The pathogenesis of neurological complications of COVID-19 is based on the receptor damage, cytokine-mediated injury, damage of the nervous system due to hypoxia, and neuronal damage due to the retrograde transport of the virus through nerve fibers.
 Objective. To determine the mechanisms of coronavirus neuroinvasion and treatment of neurological complications COVID-19.

Abstract:
The coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2). In addition to pneumonia, individuals affected by the disease have neurological symptoms. Indeed, SARS-CoV-2 has a neuroinvasive capacity. It is known that the infection caused by SARS-CoV-2 leads to a cytokine storm. An exacerbated inflammatory state can lead to the blood–brain barrier (BBB) damage as well as to intestinal dysbiosis. These changes, in turn, are associated with microglial activation and reactivity of astrocytes that can promote the degeneration of neu

Abstract:
Abstract Pneumoviruses such as the respiratory syncytial virus (hRSV) and the human metapneumovirus (hMPV) are the leading cause of acute lower tract respiratory infection, mainly in infants, elderly and immunocompromised individuals, causing high morbidity and mortality rates. However, these viruses can cause neurological alterations, such as encephalitis and encephalopathy. Viral RNA and pro-inflammatory molecules have been found in patients with neurological signs, supporting the notion of neuroinvasion and/or neuroinflammation caused by hRSV and hMPV. Therefore, this work seeks to evaluate

The dysfunctional effects of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection on the nervous system are established.

ABSTRACT The chimeric murine oncornavirus FrCasE causes a rapidly progressive paralytic disease associated with spongiform neurodegeneration throughout the neuroaxis. Neurovirulence is determined by the sequence of the viral envelope gene and by the capacity of the virus to infect microglia. The neurocytopathic effect of this virus appears to be indirect, since the cells which degenerate are not infected. In the present study we have examined the possible role of inflammatory responses in this disease and have used as a control the virus F43. F43 is an highly neuroinvasive but avirulent virus

Inflammatory responses are induced at the infected peripheral site prior to invasion of the PNS. When the peripheral tissue is first infected, only the innervating axons are exposed to this inflammatory milieu, which includes the interferons (IFNs). The fundamental question is how do PNS cell bodies respond to these distant, potentially damaging events experienced by axons. Using compartmente
