Core Tip |
This paper hypothesizes that the worsening prognosis of diabetic patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is attributable to host receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)-assisted viral uptake. Insulin resistance is often associated with impaired mucosal and skin barrier integrity, resulting in microbiota dysbiosis, which increases susceptibility to viral infections. It may also be associated with higher levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines resulting from an impaired immune system in diabetic patients, which induces a cytokine storm and excessive inflammation. This review discusses the possible factors contributing to the increased susceptibility of diabetic patients to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and the more severe COVID-19 disease and preventive and therapeutic strategies for COVID-19 in diabetic patients. |
