Article Synopsis
  • - SARS-CoV-2 uses angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 receptors (ACE2R) to enter host thyroid cells, leading to cytopathic effects and symptoms like neck pain, muscle ache, and thyroid inflammation in COVID-19 patients.
  • - The virus triggers a "cytokine storm," where pro-inflammatory cytokines (such as IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α) cause severe thyroid dysfunctions and autoimmune issues by activating key signaling pathways.
  • - Effective treatments like dexamethasone and baricitinib have shown promise in reducing thyroid-related complications and improving outcomes for severe COVID-19 patients by managing the cytokine storm.
