Abstrakt: | Importance: Severe COVID-19 and post-acute sequelae often afflict patients with underlying co-morbidities. There is a pressing need for highly effective treatment, particularly in light of the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants. In a previous study, we demonstrated that DCLK1, a protein associated with cancer stem cells, is highly expressed in the lungs of COVID-19 patients and enhances viral production and hyperinflammatory responses. In this study, we report the pivotal role of DCLK1-regulated mechanisms in driving SARS-CoV-2 replication-transcription processes and pathogenic signaling. Notably, pharmacological inhibition of DCLK1 kinase during SARS-CoV-2 effectively impedes these processes and counteracts virus-induced alternations in global cell signaling. These findings hold significant potential for immediate application in treating COVID-19. Competing Interests: A U.S. patent application (#PCT/US22/77893) is pending entitled, "Composition and Methods for Treating Coronavirus Infections Disease-19 (COVID-19)" with Naushad Ali, Mark M. Huycke, Courtney W. Houchen, and Ram Babu Undi listed as co-inventors. Courtney W. Houchen has an ownership interest with COARE Holdings, Inc. All remaining authors declare no competing interests. |
