The identification of a SARs-CoV2 S2 protein derived peptide with super-antigen-like stimulatory properties on T-cells

Abstract Severe COVID-19 can trigger a cytokine storm, leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) with similarities to superantigen-induced toxic shock syndrome. An outstanding question is whether SARS-CoV-2 protein sequences can directly induce inflammatory responses. In this study, we i...
