Peripheral blood examinations on admission in the majority of patients with COVID-19 displayed lymphopenia, elevated infection-related biomarkers (i.e., procalcitonin, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, serum ferritin, and C-reactive protein) (20) and several elevated inflammatory cytokines (i.e., tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-2R and IL-6). Despite markedly reducing virus titers, anti-S-IgG caused lung injury during the early stages of infection, impairing the wound-healing macrophage response and TGF-β production, while promoting pro inflammatory cytokine IL-8, MCP1 production, and inflammatory macrophage accumulation (22) . Another proteasome inhibitor, VR23, possess powerful antiinflammatory activity reducing IL-6 in synovial cells from RA patients, and improving LPS-induced acute lung injury by decreasing neutrophil migration, TNF-α secretion, and tissue inflammation in a mice model (52) . ./cache/cord-313227-6zwkfzab.txt ./txt/cord-313227-6zwkfzab.txt
