Have anti glycoprotein antibodies a role? 2020-06-25 .txt text/plain 868 62 57 According to the data of Italian Superior Institute of Health, in Bergamo, one of the cities of Lombardia mostly affect, the black people with moderate to severe COVID-19 are about 1,6% of COVID-19 patients [1] . However it is known that in African-Americans the severity of COVID-19 is high so, we think that the theory of immune genetic factors does not completely explain the answer. In addition children who, usually have antibodies to different viruses or bacteria are known to be protected towards COVID-19 [8] . Also coronavirus 19 presents different glycoproteins (GPs):membrane GPs, spike GPs and GPs that have acetyl esterase and hemagglutination properties .These GPs could be recognized by the antibodies produced in malaria and could protect by virus infection or induced a milder disease [9] . The natural anti histo-blood group antibodies may play a favorable role in antiviral immunity since the viruses may carry ABH structures in their envelope glycoproteins as previously demonstrated for other coronavirus [11] . ./cache/cord-317238-uszhwugw.txt ./txt/cord-317238-uszhwugw.txt
