Assessing the Vulnerability of Cancer Patients for COVID-19.
ACS Omega 2022 October 12
Severe acute respiratory syndrome involving corona virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been implied to cause COVID-19 disease, leading to an unprecedented health emergency across the globe with a staggering figure of mortality rate. Measures to control the pandemic are pushing the economy into a tailspin, putting burden not only on the individuals but also on the nations. Despite the widespread infection rates, young people have shown better recovery rate while COVID-19 symptoms are more pronounced in elderly and people with comorbid conditions such as diabetes, cardiac and respiratory diseases. Cancer is a highly prevalent disease affecting millions of individuals. In this study, we analyzed the expression status of genes that are required for SARS-CoV-2 infectivity and its propagation to assess the susceptibility of certain cancer patients to infection and subsequent complications. Our data indicate that patients with colon, rectum, cholangiocarcinoma, lung adenoma, kidney renal papillary cell carcinoma and kidney renal clear cell carcinoma are more at risk for COVID-19. Genes that are responsible for severe COVID-19 are also highly expressed in many cancer types. We also carried out the association rule mining analysis which is helpful in predicting the expression of proviral genes in various cancers.
