Myeloperoxidase inhibition may protect against endothelial glycocalyx shedding induced by COVID-19 plasma
Abstract Background SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19, is a threat to public health. Evidence suggests increased neutrophil activation and endothelial glycocalyx (EG) damage are independently associated with severe COVID-19. Here, we hypothesised that an increased level of blood neutrophil...
