摘要
Dear Editor,Almost one-half of COVID-19 patients have symptoms of liver injury.However,the molecular characteristics in the COVID-19 liver remain unknown.Therefore,the need for long-term medication for recovery make it imperative to study the infectivity and pathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 in the liver.Here,we have identifed signifcant proteomic changes for the first time in the liver of COVID-19 patients.We detected differential expression levels of several proteins that mediate characteristic cellular host responses elicited by SARS-CoV-2 infection in the liver.
