Study finds COVID-19 may trigger autoimmune diseases due to virus mimicking human proteins.
A recent study in ImmunoInformatics has found that COVID-19 may trigger autoimmune disorders like type 1 diabetes and multiple sclerosis due to molecular mimics—viral components that resemble human proteins.
Using advanced data analysis, researchers identified specific viral proteins that could cause the immune system to attack the body.
The study suggests individuals with certain genetics might be at higher risk, potentially leading to new treatments and prevention methods for COVID-induced autoimmune diseases.
