چکیده

مقدمه و هدف: بیماری کووید-19 به عنوان یک همه گیری با قدرت گسترش بالا و طیف وسیع علائم بالینی و عدم درمان قطعی چالش پیش سال‌های اخیر بشر است. پاسخ ضد ویروسی اینترفرون نوع یک در برابر ویروس    SARS-COV-2 از مهم ترین مسیرهای سیستم ایمنی ذاتی در مواجهه با این بیماری است. هدف از این مطالعه بررسی ارتباط بین بیان دو ژن ly6e وusp18، با شدت علائم بالینی در بیماران مبتلا به کووید-19 بود.
مواد و روش ها: نمونه خون محیطی از بیماران تهیه و DNA آن‌ها استخراج شد، سپس بیان ژنly6e  وusp18 به وسیله روش Real-time PCR مورد سنجش قرار گرفت. نمونه‌های cDNA در ابتدا با استفاده از پرایمرهای اختصاصی تکثیر داده شدند. تجزیه و تحلیل داده‌ها با استفاده از آزمون‌های کای دو، کروسکال‌والیس و من‌ویتنی انجام شد. سطح معناداری 0.05 در نظر گرفته شد.
نتایج: بیان ژن ly6e به طور معناداری (p=0.008)در گروه بستری نسبت به گروه کنترل کاهش یافته بود. هیچ تفاوت معناداری در بیان ژن usp18 میان گروه‌های مورد مطالعه دیده نشد.
نتیجه‌گیری: بیان مناسبی از پروتئین ly6e می تواند با کنترل شدت علائم بالینی بیماری کووید-19ارتباط داشته باشد.

چکیده [English]

Background and Objective: Covid-19 disease as a pandemic with high spreading power and a wide range of clinical symptoms and lack of definitive treatment is a challenge for mankind in recent years. The antiviral response of type 1 interferon against the SARS-COV-2 virus is one of the most important pathways of the innate immune system in dealing with this disease. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the expression of two genes, ly6e and usp18, with the severity of clinical symptoms in patients with covid-19.
Materials and Methods: Peripheral blood samples were prepared from patients and their DNA was extracted, then the expression of ly6e and usp18 genes was measured by real-time PCR method. cDNA samples were first amplified using specific primers. Data analysis was performed using chi-square, Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests. A significance level of 0.05 was considered.
Results: The expression of the ly6e gene was significantly (p=0.008) decreased in the hospitalized group compared to the control group. No significant difference was seen in the expression of the usp18 gene among the studied groups.
Conclusion: Proper expression of ly6e protein can be related to controlling the severity of clinical symptoms of covid-19 disease.
