Defending Antiviral Cationic Amphiphilic Drugs That May Cause Drug-Induced Phospholipidosis

Thomas R. Lane, Sean Ekins

Summary: While a recent publication suggested that cationic amphiphilic drugs repurposed for COVID-19 may not be effective in vivo, additional experimental data supports the efficacy of many of these molecules both in vitro and in vivo without causing phospholipidosis. Therefore, further exploration of this class of compounds is warranted in the search for broad spectrum antivirals.

MAP3K19 regulatory variation in populations with African ancestry may increase COVID-19 severity

Zhongshan Cheng, Yi Cai, Ke Zhang, Jingxuan Zhang, Hongsheng Gui, Yu-Si Luo, Jie Zhou, Brian DeVeale

Summary: Through an integrative analysis of two genome-wide association studies, we identified ancestry-linked genetic risk variants associated with COVID-19 hospitalization and identified four more frequent single nucleotide polymorphisms in COVID-19-hospitalized patients with non-European ancestry. Among them, the COVID-19 risk SNP rs16831827 showed the largest difference in minor allele frequency (MAF) between populations with African and European ancestry and also exhibited higher MAF in hospitalized COVID-19 patients with mixed ancestry (odds ratio [OR] = 1.20, 95% CI: 1.10-1.30) and entirely African ancestry (OR = 1.30, 95% CI: 1.02-1.67). rs16831827 is an expression quantitative trait locus of MAP3K19, which is highly expressed in ciliated tissues including lungs, and its reduced expression may increase the risk of severe COVID-19.

Summary: A large-scale study conducted in southwest Germany found that the secondary attack rate of SARS-CoV-2 was significantly higher in exposed adults compared to children in households. Additionally, the transmission rate was higher when the index case-patient was over 60 years old. Risk factors for infectiousness of the index case-patient included SARS-CoV-2 seropositivity, fever, and cough.

SARS-CoV-2 may affect the immune response via direct inhibition of T cell receptor: Mechanistic hypothesis and rationale

Alexander B. Sigalov

Summary: During co-evolution, many viruses have developed membrane fusion mechanisms to enter host cells. This study suggests that SARS-CoV-2 may use a similar strategy to suppress immune responses, which has important implications for understanding COVID-19 pathology, developing effective vaccines, and improving clinical outcomes for patients.
