Core Tip |
COVID-19 is a global pandemic. Many COVID-19 patients either present gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms in addition to respiratory symptoms or just GI symptoms. SARS-CoV-2 directly infects GI epithelial cells as they express significant levels of angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 and transmembrane protease serine 2 protein, required for SARS-CoV-2 entry. This article reviews gut infection and GI immunomodulation by SARS-CoV-2, leading to spectrum of GI symptoms and pathogenesis in COVID-19-patients. Special emphases are given on the innate and acquired immune responses in the GI tract due to intestinal and non-intestinal SARS-CoV-2 infection, COVID-19 severity in people with pre-existing intestinal diseases, role of gut microbiota, and possible therapeutic interventions are discussed. |
