Peripheral Blood Genes Crosstalk between COVID-19 and Sepsis.

ABSTRACT: Severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has led to a rapid increase in death rates all over the world. Sepsis is a life-threatening disease associated with a dysregulated host immune response. It has been shown that COVID-19 shares many similarities with sepsis in many aspects. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying sepsis and COVID-19 are not well understood. The aim of this study was to identify common transcriptional signatures, regulators, and pathways between COVID-19 and sepsis, which may provide a new direction for the treatment of COVID-19 and sepsis. First, COVID-19 blood gene expression profile (GSE179850) data and sepsis blood expression profile (GSE134347) data were obtained from GEO. Then, we intersected the differentially expressed genes (DEG) from these two datasets
