Abstract

SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza co-infection turned out to be a huge threat in recent times. The clinical presentation and disease severity is common in both the infection condition. The present paper deals with studying co-infection model system through systems biology approaches. Understanding signaling regulation in COVID-19 and co-infection model systems aid in the development of network-based models thereby suggesting intervention points for therapeutics. This paper highlights the aim of revealing such perturbations to decipher opportune mediating cross talks characterizing the deadly viral disease. The comparative analysis of both the models reveals major signaling protein NFκB and STAT1 playing a crucial role in establishing co-infection. By targeting these proteins at cellular level, it might help modulating the release of potent pro-inflammatory cytokines thereby taming the severity of the disease symptoms. Mathematical models developed here are precisely tailored and serves as a first step towards co-infection model offering flexibility and pitching towards therapeutic investigation.
