Long-term Neurological Consequences of Sars-cov-2 Infection Using Brain Organoids

Year: 2023

Type: article

Abstract: SARS-CoV-2 virus has been reported neuroinvasive, neurotropic and potentially neurovirulent. Moreover, in the last months a new concern has arisen in relation to long-lasting symptoms of the infection. Interestingly, clinical studies report that SARS-CoV-2 infection could trigger neurological complications compatible with the appearance of neurodegeneration. Nevertheless, it is still not known whether these long-term neurological manifestations are caused by direct viral brain invasion, its replication, a systemic reaction to widespread inflammation, or their combination.
