“Dysregulation of autoimmune responses and the presence of autoantibodies (AA), particularly those related to the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), have been implicated in the acute phase of COVID-19, and persistent dysregulation of brain RAS by RAS-related autoantibodies may also contribute to neurological symptoms of post-COVID.”
