NK cell receptor NKG2C deletion and HLA-E variants are risk factors for severe COVID-19

2020-06-15

Abstract excerpt

Patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 may show mild infection or may develop severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In the present study, we investigated whether there is an association between the severity of COVID-19 and the naturally occurring human genetic variants in the natural killer (NK) cell NKG2C receptor (NKG2C wt/del ) and its cellular ligand HLA-E (HLA-E*0101/0103). Both factors are essential compone...
