Candesartan Could Ameliorate the Cytokine Storm in COVID-19 Infection
Scientists from Bethesda, USA, experimentally found the upregulation of the same genes during COVID-19 infection as with the action of glutamate (simulating aging and Alzheimer's disease) and the normalization of their expression by candesartan. Considering that many of these genes are involved in the cytokine storm in COVID-19, the mentioned results support the hypothesis that sartans − or at least candesartan − could mitigate the cytokine storm in patients with severe COVID-19.
