2 Mar 2020  ·  Xiaobing Deng, Xiaoyu Yu, Jianfeng Pei ·

Regulating the upstream of the cytokines production could be a promising strategy to the treatment of COVID-19. We suggest to pay more attention to the dysregulated IFN-I production in COVID-19 and to considerate cGAS, ALK and STING as potential therapeutic targets preventing cytokine storm. Approved drugs like suramin and ALK inhibitors are worthy of clinical trials.
