Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The interplay between genetic factors and COVID-19 susceptibility and severity underscores the critical roles of genetic variations in the responses to the virus. Specifically, genetic variations in genes such as AAK1 and ADAM17 may influence the molecular pathways that determine how the virus enters cells and how the immune system responds, thereby affecting disease outcomes. Identifying these...
