A prospective follow-up on thyroid function, thyroid autoimmunity and long COVID among 250 COVID-19 survivors - Endocrine
Abstract Purpose We evaluated the evolution of thyroid function and autoimmunity among COVID-19 survivors over 6 months in relation to interferon beta-1b treatment and long COVID. Methods We included COVID-19 survivors managed in a major COVID-19 centre between July 2020 and May 2021 who were reassessed three and/or six months after acute COVID-19. Thyroid function tests (TFTs) and anti-thyroid antibody titres were measured at acute COVID-19, 3-month and 6-month.
Effect of COVID-19 Vaccines on Thyroid Function and Autoimmunity and Effect of Thyroid Autoimmunity on Antibody Response
The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has infected more than 480 million globally, leading to more than 6 million deaths (1). COVID-19 is associated with multiple extrapulmonary manifestations, including thyroid dysfunction (2). Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2, the entry receptor for SARS-CoV-2, is found to be expressed in many organs, including the thyroid gland (3), providing a mechanistic link between COVID-19 and thyroid dysfunction.
HPV-E6 protein enriches the CD55(+) population in cervical cancer cells promoting radio-resistance and cancer aggressiveness
Accumulating evidence indicates that the human papilloma virus (HPV) E6 protein plays a crucial role in the development of cervical cancer. Sub-populations of cells that reside within tumors are responsible for tumor resistance to cancer therapy and recurrence. However, the identity of such cells residing in cervical cancer and their relationship with the HPV-E6 protein have not been identified.
