Abstract
: Thromboinflammation is a peculiar and key component of acute COVID-19 pathogenesis, which contributes to long COVID. In a recent study, Ryu et al. demonstrate that the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein interacts with fibrinogen, promoting fibrin polymerization and its inflammatory activity. Targeting the inflammatory fibrin peptide protected mice from spike-dependent fibrin clotting and neuropathology.File in questo prodotto:
