Long COVID may involve disrupted inflammation resolution and increased lipoxygenase activity
A post says researchers analyzing blood from 106 people found increased lipoxygenase activity in those who developed Long COVID.
TLDR
A post says a study led by Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School researchers analyzed blood samples from 106 people following SARS-CoV-2 infection. Those who developed Long COVID had increased activity of lipoxygenases, enzymes that metabolize fatty acids involved in regulating inflammation. The study suggests Long COVID may involve difficulty resolving inflammation.
