Post-COVID Endocrine Disorders: Putative Role of Molecular Mimicry and Some Pathomorphological Correlates
2022-11-07
Abstract excerpt
The article is devoted to the problem of autoimmune diseases provocation by coronavirus infection and the role of molecular mimicry in this phenomenon. SARS-CoV-2 can disguise its proteins as human ones in order to avoid immune attack. A bioinformatics analysis of the probable pentapeptide sharing between human autoantigens of endocrinocytes and SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, membrane protein and nucleocapsid protein w...
