SARS-CoV-2 primarily attacks the respiratory system, many COVID-19 patients, however, also show neurological symptoms. Single-nucleus transcriptome analyses from post-mortem frontal cortex and choroid plexus samples across control individuals and patients have revealed interesting discoveries in this study. Gene expression profiles associated with COVID-19 that overlap with those seen in chronic brain disorders could be identified. A molecular framework was established for a better understanding of COVID-19-related neurological symptoms.
