Article Synopsis
  • * Researchers focused on a specific genetic variant in the CIAS1 gene (rs74163773), which influences inflammasome activity, by analyzing DNA from patients with severe and mild COVID and healthy controls.
  • * Results showed that the 12 unit repeat allele in CIAS1 is much more common in severe cases, indicating that this genetic factor may increase the risk for developing severe COVID-19 due to heightened inflammatory responses.

Introduction: Torque teno virus (TTV) is a non-pathogenic virus present in body fluids. Its titer in the circulation increases in association with immune suppression, such as in HIV-infected individuals. We evaluated if the TTV titer in saliva from HIV-positive individuals undergoing antiretroviral therapy (ART) was related to the circulating CD4+ T lymphocyte concentration and the HIV titer.
