Genetics and epigenetics are mechanisms proposed for explaining post-COVID-19 condition. This secondary analysis aimed to investigate if DNA methylation levels of the ACE2 promoter different depending on genotype five COVID-19-related polymorphisms in individuals who had been previously hospitalized due SARS-CoV-2 infection. We collected non-stimulated saliva samples from 279 (48.7% female, age: 56.0 ± 12.5 years) COVID-19 survivors. The participants self-reported presence post-COVID...

It is known that SARS-CoV-2 can translocate via membrane ACE2 exopeptidase into the host cells, and thus hypomethylation of possibly upregulates its expression, enhancing risk infection. This study investigated if DNA methylation levels promoter are associated with development post-COVID-19 symptomatology in a cohort COVID-19 survivors who had been previously hospitalized. Non-stimulated saliva samples were obtained from 279 (51.5 male, mean age: 56.5 ± 13.0 years old) hospitalized during...
