30 / 322 resultsresearch ACE2 and TMPRSS2 Potential Involvement in Genetic Susceptibility to SARS-COV-2 in Cancer Patients
Targeting ACE2 and TMPRSS2 may help prevent or treat COVID-19 in cancer patients.
research The Mask Mutation Identifies TMPRSS6 as an Essential Suppressor of Hepcidin Gene Expression, Required for Normal Uptake of Dietary Iron.
TMPRSS6 is crucial for controlling hepcidin and normal iron absorption.
research Analyzing the role of ACE2, AR, MX1 and TMPRSS2 genetic markers for COVID-19 severity
MX1 and AR genes are linked to milder COVID-19, while TMPRSS2 increases severe risk, especially in women.
research Genetic and hormonal influence on SARS-CoV-2-infection susceptibility
Men may be more vulnerable to severe COVID-19 due to genetic and hormonal factors, but more research is needed.
research TMPRSS2: A Key Host Factor in SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Potential Therapeutic Target
TMPRSS2 is crucial for COVID-19 infection and is a potential target for treatment.
research Polymorphism of genes in patients with new coronavirus infection COVID-19
Genetic differences affect COVID-19 severity and treatment effectiveness.
research The secret identities of TMPRSS2: Fertility factor, virus trafficker, inflammation moderator, prostate protector and tumor suppressor
TMPRSS2 helps viruses enter cells and protects the prostate from inflammation-related cancer.
research Redefining hormone resistance in prostate cancer
The conclusion suggests that prostate cancer should be classified by castration status and that new therapies targeting androgen receptor signaling show promise.
research It’s X-Related: Biological Bases of Increased COVID-19 Morbidity and Mortality in Men
Men have worse COVID-19 outcomes than women due to genetic and hormonal differences.
research Skin amidst COVID ‐19 pandemic
COVID-19 can cause various skin issues, including rashes and 'COVID toes', and may worsen autoimmune diseases or affect men with baldness more severely.
research COVID-19: Understanding Inter-Individual Variability and Implications for Precision Medicine
The conclusion is that individual differences in COVID-19 severity are influenced by factors like age, sex, race, and genetics, which are important for personalized medicine.
research Matriptase-2, A Novel Suppressor of Hepcidin.
Matriptase-2 helps control iron levels by suppressing hepcidin, and its deficiency can cause iron-deficiency anemia.
research Sex differences in COVID-19: the role of androgens in disease severity and progression
Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.
research Relationship between betacoronaviruses and the endocrine system: a new key to understand the COVID-19 pandemic—A comprehensive review
Betacoronaviruses, like COVID-19, may cause hormone system dysfunction and affect disease susceptibility and severity.
research The immune response to COVID ‐19: Does sex matter?
Men and women get COVID-19 at similar rates, but men tend to get sicker and have a higher risk of dying, while women usually have stronger immune responses and vaccine reactions.
research ERG induces androgen receptor-mediated regulation of SOX9 in prostate cancer
ERG increases SOX9, promoting prostate cancer growth and invasion.
research Spiking dependence of SARS‐CoV‐2 pathogenicity on TMPRSS2
TMPRSS2 affects COVID-19 severity and treatment options.
research Candidate genes of SARS-CoV-2 gender susceptibility
Men are more affected by COVID-19 due to differences in immune responses and protein expression.
research Host Genetic Susceptibility and Impacts of Dietary Factors on Covid-19
Certain genes and nutrients like vitamin D, zinc, and omega fatty acids affect COVID-19 severity and infection risk.
research Human genetic basis of coronavirus disease 2019
Genetic differences affect COVID-19 severity and treatment development.
research The impact of certain genetic variants (single nucleotide polymorphisms) on incidence and severity of COVID‐19
Certain genetic differences may affect how likely someone is to get COVID-19 and how severe it might be.
research Androgen sensitivity gateway to COVID ‐19 disease severity
Men's sensitivity to male hormones might affect how severe COVID-19 gets for them.
research Are sex discordant outcomes in COVID-19 related to sex hormones?
Sex hormones may affect COVID-19 severity, with men often faring worse, and targeting related pathways could offer treatment options.
research An Assessment on Impact of COVID-19 Infection in a Gender Specific Manner
Men have higher COVID-19 mortality rates than women due to biological and lifestyle factors.
research From bedside to bench: regulation of host factors in SARS-CoV-2 infection
The conclusion is that certain genetic factors and blood types may affect COVID-19 severity, but changes in ACE2 and TMPRSS2 genes are not clearly linked to it.
research Hair Loss and Androgen’s Role in the Era of COVID-19
Androgens may worsen COVID-19 and hair loss could indicate the disease's severity.
