圣裘德研究人员发现儿童体内的分子模仿把SARS-COV-2与MISS-C联系起来。 St. Jude researchers discover molecular mimicry linking SARS-CoV-2 to MIS-C in children.

圣裘德儿童研究医院的研究人员发现了SARS-COV-2病毒与儿童多系统炎综合症(MISS-C)之间的联系。 Researchers at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have discovered a link between the SARS-CoV-2 virus and multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). 在《自然显露的分子模仿》中发表的一项研究,其中一部分病毒的蛋白质与人类蛋白(SNX8)非常相似,导致免疫系统错误地攻击人体自己的细胞。 A study published in Nature revealed molecular mimicry, where a section of the virus's protein closely resembles a human protein (SNX8), causing the immune system to mistakenly attack the body's own cells. 这一发现可增进对MISS-C诊断和治疗的了解,并可能导致对风险人群的早期干预。 This finding could improve understanding of MIS-C diagnosis and treatment, and potentially lead to early interventions for those at risk.
