Abstract:The outbreak of COVID-19 linked to the SARS-CoV-2 virus has raised worries about its potential to worsen pre-existing health issues such as autoimmune conditions. One common autoimmune condition seen across all individuals is epilepsy. Our detailed computational study examined the complex connection between COVID-19 and epilepsy, with a focus on their possible impact on neurodegenerative disorders. Leveraging transcriptome analysis, we aimed to interpret shared pathways and molecular biomarkers between COVID-1… Show more
