Dysregulation of circulating protease activity in Covid-19-associated superinfection
2021-10-22
Abstract excerpt
Infection by SARS-CoV-2 and subsequent COVID-19 can cause viral sepsis and septic shock. Several complications have been observed in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with COVID-19, one of those being bacterial superinfection. Based on prior evidence that dysregulated systemwide proteolysis is associated with death in bacterial septic shock, we investigated whether protease activity and proteolysi...
