Abstract<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

A small but significant proportion of those infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) develop life threatening pneumonia and a hyper-inflammatory state often referred to as the cytokine storm. A great need exists for innovative therapeutic approaches. Signal transducer CD24 is a small heavily glycosylated molecule, that is GPI anchored to the cell membrane, and plays a role in many signal transduction pathways. CD24 has been shown to play a major role in dampening inflammatory signaling via multiple mechanisms, and in particular NF\u0138B. We have developed exosomes over-expressing immune-checkpoint-protein CD24 [EXO CD24 (OBCTCD24 Ltd., Israel)], to treat COVID-19 induced immune hyper-activation.<\/p>\n

Herein, we present proof-of-concept studies that the administration of EXO CD24 targets the most important complication of Covid19 disease by inhibiting the production of cytokines and chemokines.<\/p>\n
