METHOD OF TREATING LONG-COVID INDUCED NEUROLOGIC DISEASES

A method of treating or preventing Alzheimer's disease or related dementias in patients previously infected with a respiratory virus such as SARS CoV2 is presented. Brain gene expression profiles of severe COVID-19 patients show increased expression of several innate immune response genes and genes implicated in Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis. The gene expression signature includes genes involved in inflammation, protein folding/trafficking, complement activation, calcium homeostasis, and amyloid/tau processing. The gene expression signature is correlated with tau pathology, α-synuclein, and demyelination with neuroinflammation being increased in old versus young CoV-2 infected mice..
