Human<i>ace2</i>and<i>tmprss2</i>polymorphisms for predicting susceptibility to tuberculosis and COVID-19 co-infection in Cameroonian cohort

2024-11-15

Abstract excerpt

SARS-CoV-2 and Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( Mtb ) share similarities in their modes of transmission, pathophysiological symptoms, and manifestations. An imbalance in the immune response characterized by significantly elevated levels of some inflammatory cytokines may increase the risk of developing both tuberculosis (TB) and COVID-19 as a comorbid condition. The role of SNPs in ace2 and tmprss2 conferring higher s...
