SARS-CoV-2 infection induces autoimmune antibody secretion more in lean than in obese COVID-19 patients

2021-05-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background/Objectives</h4> Obesity decreases the secretion of SARS-CoV-2-specific IgG antibodies in the blood of COVID-19 patients. How obesity impacts the secretion of autoimmune antibodies in COVID-19 patients, however, is not understood. The serum of adult COVID-19 patients contains autoimmune antibodies generated in response to virus-induced tissue damage and cell death leading to the release of intracellu...
