We aimed to investigate if there was a link between the presence of APL Abs and the severity of COVID-19 disease in patients at the Vali-Asr Hospital in Zanjan from June to July 2021. Real-time PCR was used to diagnose COVID-19 in 76 hospitalized patients. A total of 38 patients were hospitalized in the internal medicine ward and another 38 people were admitted to the intensive care unit of the Vali-Asr Educational Hospital in Iran's Zanjan region. Lupus anticoagulant (LAC) detection was done using the dilute Russell viper venom time method, and tests for anticardiolipin (ACL) Abs, IgG and IgM, and anti-beta2 glycoprotein 1 Abs, IgG and IgM, were done on blood and plasma samples of linked patients using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technique. SPSS 24 was used to analyze data. Our findings showed that the presence of LAC was associated with disease severity in COVID-19 patients (<i>p</i> = 0.001).

We used mice in which overexpression of miR-29ab1 cluster could be induced specifically within skeletal muscle, and investigated the effects of miR-29 overexpression on skeletal muscle at 1 month of age. We found that the overexpression of miR-29ab1 cluster in juvenile mice caused skeletal muscle mass and myofiber cross-sectional area to increase. The study on the mechanism of miR-29 inducing skeletal muscle hypertrophy had found that miR-29 achieved its function by inhibiting the expression of Mstn. At the same time, injured myofibers were present within miR-29ab1 cluster overexpressing skeletal muscle. The damage of skeletal muscle may be due to the inhibition of the type IV collagen by miR-29.
