Mohsen Rokni et al.

Summary: This study found an association between TMPRSS2 gene polymorphisms and susceptibility and severity of COVID-19 infection. Different haplotypes and genotypes were associated with increased risk of COVID-19, and certain genotypes were associated with a more severe disease pattern and higher risk of death.

Estimating excess mortality due to the COVID-19 pandemic: a systematic analysis of COVID-19-related mortality, 2020-21

Haidong Wang et al.

Summary: This study estimated excess mortality from the COVID-19 pandemic in 191 countries and territories, as well as 252 subnational units in selected countries from Jan 1, 2020, to Dec 31, 2021. The findings showed that globally, there were 18.2 million excess deaths due to the COVID-19 pandemic during this period. The highest excess mortality rates were observed in countries such as India, the USA, Russia, Mexico, Brazil, Indonesia, and Pakistan.

Whole-genome sequencing of 1,171 elderly admixed individuals from Sao Paulo, Brazil

Michel S. Naslavsky et al.

Summary: This study presents a high-coverage WGS dataset of elderly Brazilians from a mixed population, providing valuable data on non-European and mixed populations. The results demonstrate that WGS can identify previously undescribed variants and genomic segments, as well as alleles from HLA genes. The study also shows the clinical usefulness of reclassifying and validating variants associated with dominantly-inherited Mendelian disorders. Furthermore, the findings highlight the improved potential of whole-genome and HLA imputation using WGS data.

A common TMPRSS2 variant has a protective effect against severe COVID-19

Alessia David et al.

Summary: A common genetic variant (rs12329760) in the TMPRSS2 gene is associated with a significantly decreased risk of severe COVID-19. Further studies are needed to assess TMPRSS2 expression across different age groups, and TMPRSS2 may serve as a promising drug target in the treatment of COVID-19.

Allelic Variations in the Human Genes TMPRSS2 and CCR5, and the Resistance to Viral Infection by SARS-CoV-2

Girolamo Aurelio Vitello et al.

Summary: During the first wave of COVID-19 infection in Italy, the number of cases and mortality rates were high. COVID-19 was found to be more severe in older individuals with comorbidities and male gender. However, some individuals in close contact with infected subjects showed resistance to virus infection. Besides genetic variability of the virus and other environmental factors, allelic variants of specific human genes related to the virus life cycle should be considered to understand the susceptibility to virus infection and COVID-19 progression.

Association of the Transmembrane Serine Protease-2 (TMPRSS2) Polymorphisms with COVID-19

Rosalinda Posadas-Sanchez et al.

Summary: This study found that TMPRSS2 gene polymorphisms are associated with the risk of COVID-19, with rs2298659, rs456298, and rs462574 polymorphisms being associated with a higher risk of developing the disease. Additionally, the rs456298 and rs462574 genotypes are related to higher levels of LDH and heart rate.

Summary: The severity factors of COVID-19 include age, gender, underlying health conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and immunodeficiency, which may lead to complications like acute kidney injury. Various laboratory indicators and parameters can help monitor disease progression, while socioeconomic factors, lifestyle, and quality of healthcare also play a role in individual outcomes.

Age-determined expression of priming protease TMPRSS2 and localization of SARS-CoV-2 in lung epithelium

Bryce A. Schuler et al.

Summary: The study found that SARS-CoV-2 primarily infects ciliated cells and type I alveolar epithelial cells in the lungs, with TMPRSS2 expression increasing with age. Analysis of autopsy tissue showed that SARS-CoV-2 RNA is mainly located in specific cells in the respiratory tract and peripheral lung that express TMPRSS2.

Protective Role of a TMPRSS2 Variant on Severe COVID-19 Outcome in Young Males and Elderly Women

Maria Monticelli et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the sequence of the TMPRSS2 gene and identified common variants with potentially deleterious effects on the protease activity, particularly p.V197M (p.Val197Met), which showed a protective effect on COVID-19 patients, especially in young males, elderly women, and those with co-morbidities.

Transmembrane serine protease 2 Polymorphisms and Susceptibility to Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Type 2 Infection: A German Case-Control Study

Kristina Schoenfelder et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the association of SNPs in the TMPRSS2 gene with susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection and severity of COVID-19 in a German cohort. The CC genotype of rs383510 was associated with a 1.73-fold increased risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection, but not with severity of COVID-19. rs2070788 and rs12329760 polymorphisms were not related to SARS-CoV-2 infection risk or severity of COVID-19. The study suggests that the intron variant rs383510 in the TMPRSS2 gene is associated with an increased risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Mortality-related risk factors of COVID-19: a systematic review and meta-analysis of 42 studies and 423,117 patients

Zelalem G. Dessie et al.

Summary: Chronic comorbidities, complications, and demographic factors such as acute kidney injury, COPD, diabetes, hypertension, CVD, cancer, increased D-dimer, male gender, older age, current smoker, and obesity are identified as clinical risk factors for fatal outcomes related to coronavirus mortality, according to large dataset from 42 studies involving 423,117 patients. The findings provide valuable insights for future research, control, and prevention of the disease.

Mapping the human genetic architecture of COVID-19

Mari E. K. Niemi et al.

Summary: The genetic make-up of an individual plays a role in susceptibility and response to viral infections. A global network of researchers identified 13 significant genetic loci associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection and severe COVID-19 cases. Mendelian randomization analyses suggest a causal role for smoking and body-mass index in severe COVID-19. Collaboration among human genetics researchers has allowed for the discovery of novel host genetic factors linked to COVID-19.

Laksmi Wulandari et al.

Summary: The study investigated the correlation between a genetic variant within the human TMPRSS2 gene and COVID-19 severity and viral load. The results showed a significant association between the genetic variant and SARS-CoV-2 viral load, but not with disease severity. Additionally, a trend of association was observed between the presence of the C allele and mortality rate in patients with severe COVID-19.
