Mining the potential therapeutic targets for COVID-19 infection in patients with severe burn injuries via bioinformatics analysis.

ABSTRACT: The Coronavirus Disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic is posing a serious challenge to human health. Burn victims are susceptible to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection leading to delayed recovery and even profound debilitation. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying COVID-19 and severe burn are yet to be elucidated. In our work, the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified from GSE157852 and GSE19743, and the common DEGs between COVID-19 and severe burn were extracted. Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), protein-protein interactions (PPI), gene coexpression network, and multifactor regulatory network analysis of hub genes were carried out. A total of 44 common DEGs were found between COVID-19 and severe bu
