Brain 18F-FDG PET imaging in outpatients with post-COVID-19 conditions: findings and associations with clinical characteristics
“Outpatients with post-COVID-19 conditions exhibited extensive hypometabolic right fronto-temporal clusters. Patients with more numerous symptoms during the initial phase and with a longer duration of symptoms were at higher risk of persistent brain involvement.”

SARS-CoV-2 and HSV-1 Induce Amyloid Aggregation in Human CSF Resulting in Drastic Soluble Protein Depletion
SARS-CoV-2 and HSV-1 Induce Amyloid Aggregation in Human CSF Resulting in Drastic Soluble Protein Depletion

SARS-CoV-2 and HSV-1 induce amyloid aggregation, depleting soluble proteins.

Suggests a link between viral infections and neurodegenerative diseases via protein loss.

Persistence of spike protein at the skull-meninges-brain axis may contribute to the neurological sequelae of COVID-19
Persistence of spike protein at the skull-meninges-brain axis may contribute to the neurological sequelae of COVID-19

Evidence that a COVID-19 infection can induce neurological sequelae.

The SARSCoV2 spike protein can persist in the brain—skull bone marrow and meninges—to induce neurologic damage

SARS-CoV-2 spike protein accumulates & persists in the body for years after infection, especially in the skull-meninges-brain axis, potentially driving long COVID. mRNA vaccines help but cannot stop it.

In mice, it caused inflammation, anxiety, and worsened brain injuries. Vaccines reduced but did not fully eliminate it.

“The Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 presents a wide spectrum of neurological manifestations."

"Although there is an improvement in the survival rate of patients with COVID-19, the frequency of neurological manifestations increases."

"The occurrence of delirium, cerebrovascular diseases, and ischemic stroke results in higher mortality."

“We identified dysregulation of mitochondrial and synaptic pathways in deep-layer excitatory neurons and upregulation of neuroinflammation in glia, consistent across both mRNA and protein. Remarkably, these alterations overlapped substantially with changes in age-related neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease”

SARS-CoV-2 Invasion and Pathological Links to Prion Disease
SARS-CoV-2 Invasion and Pathological Links to Prion Disease

Nearly half of those infected with SARS-CoV-2 experience long-term neurological problems, including brain fog and memory issues.

An infection may accelerate or exacerbate prion diseases like Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease, leading to rapid neurodegeneration.
