Elevated HSP70 and HSP90 as Predictive Markers of Immune Activation and Lung Injury in SARS-COV-2 Disease
CONCLUSION: HSP90 and HSP70 contribute to excessive immune responses and cytokine storms. They may serve as prognostic serum markers for COVID-19 lung injury. Additionally, they are candidates for anti-inflammatory therapy.PMID:37606151 | DOI:10.22034/iji.2023.97202.2488 (Source: Iranian Journal of Immunology)
