ABSTRACT Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), a newly identified group 2 coronavirus, is the causative agent of severe acute respiratory syndrome, a life-threatening form of pneumonia in humans. Coronavirus replication and transcription are highly specialized processes of cytoplasmic RNA synthesis that localize to virus-induced membrane structures and were recently proposed to involve a complex enzymatic machinery that, besides RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, helicase, and protease activities, also involves a series of RNA-processing enzymes that are not found in most other

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of the current COVID-19 pandemic, has caused more than 4.5 million deaths worldwide. Severe and fatal cases of COVID-19 are often associated with increased proinflammatory cytokine levels including interleukin 6 (IL-6) and acute respiratory distress syndrome. In this study, we explored the feasibility of using plants to produce an anti-IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) monoclonal antibody (mAb) and examined its utility in reducing IL-6 signaling in an in vitro model, which simulates IL-6 induction during SARS-CoV-2 infection

Abstract Eosinophils rapidly decrease in the peripheral blood of patients during COVID-19, and eosinopenia has been correlated with disease severity. These clinical observations suggest that eosinophils may play a functional role in the response to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Murine studies have shown that eosinophils can be recruited to the lungs in response to infection with respiratory viruses, including RSV and influenza and parainfluenza viruses, yet the role of eosinophils in the lungs in response to SARS-CoV-2 infection is unknown.
