CARE paper published in iScience: CD177 is associated with coronavirus disease severity
In an effort to increase the understanding of SARS-CoV-2, CARE researchers found that the activation of a type of white blood cells called neutrophils could be linked to the overexpression of a protein encoded by the CD177 gene. They concluded that CD177 is a reliable prognostic marker for routine care.
