Abstract
Objective: This review aims to study the receptor's family and functions most related to COVID-19 infection and also suggest the tissue and cell location on which the majority of COVID-19 receptors are mainly expressed.
Methods: This systematic review is according to PRISMA guidelines. PubMed, Cochrane, SciELO, Lilacs, Web of Science, and DOAJ databases were used. Clinical trials and research articles studying receptors related to COVID-19 were included in this review. R programming language was used to elaborate charts and receptors network, and SPSS(26v) software was used to perform statistical analysis (PROSPERO: CRD42020210643).
Results: The majority of studies on the involvement of receptors in COVID-19 included plasma receptors and G protein-coupled receptor families (p<0.05). These receptors are highly expressed in the brain (24%) and 80% of them can interact with each other in a protein network, exerting some regulatory effects on various tissues. The main influential receptor in the network of receptors involved in the COVID-19 was the EGFR and the majority of receptors were associated with pathological processes of the disease (p<0.05), including the amplification of inflammatory responses in COVID-19, which may be related to neurological disorders in some cases. Studies on receptors involved in the COVID-19 included mainly patients from the United States, Spain, and Brazil (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Plasma receptors and G protein-coupled receptors, especially the EGFR, involved in pathological effects of the COVID-19 inflammatory process in the brain have shown significant importance in this review.
Keywords: Brain, COVID-19, epidermal growth factor receptor, G protein-coupled receptor, inflammation, plasmareceptors.

Chalcogen-modified nucleic acid analogues
Chalcogen-modified nucleosides, nucleotides and oligonucleotides have been of great interest to scientific research for many years. The replacement of oxygen in the nucleobase, sugar or phosphate backbone by chalcogen atoms (sulfur, selenium, tellurium) gives these biomolecules unique properties resulting from their altered physical and chemical properties. The continuing interest in ...read more
