Coronavirus-19 (SARS-CoV-2) is constantly changed through mutation, and new stains of this virus are detected throughout the world such as B.1.1.7 (UK), B.1.351 (South Africa), and P.1 (Brazil). These strains seem to be more easily transmissible than other variants, which may lead to more cases and more deaths. Currently, there are many vaccines for SARS-CoV-2 available in the market but without full clinical data beside. Despite the existence of these vaccines, the numbers of outpatients are still increasing in many countries around the world, and the reliability of these vaccines still remains elusive. It is well known that trace element deficiencies increase the individual susceptibility to immune dysfunction and lead to global health problem. In this context, improving the immune defense system to combats this pandemic is absolutely necessary. The purpose of this review is to establish the probable relation between trace elements supplementation and COVID-19. Several clinical studies confirmed that Cu, Se, and Zn insufficiencies alter the immune system and increase the vulnerability to viral infections. Based on antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects of these micronutrients, it seems logical that dietary supplementations of these components might enhance human immune system and lower the graveness of COVID-19 infection. Based on available data, we hypothesize that the clinical use of some essential trace element supplementations such as copper, selenium, and zinc might be a preventive and promising option to enhance human immunity against the new pandemic COVID-19 and its new strains.

微量元素补充剂(铜、硒和锌)能否增强人体对 COVID-19 及其新变种的免疫力?

冠状病毒 19 (SARS-CoV-2) 通过突变不断变化,并且在世界各地检测到这种病毒的新污点,例如 B.1.1.7(英国)、B.1.351(南非)和 P.1 (巴西)。这些菌株似乎比其他变种更容易传播,这可能导致更多病例和更多死亡。目前,市场上有许多针对 SARS-CoV-2 的疫苗,但没有完整的临床数据。尽管存在这些疫苗,但全球许多国家的门诊人数仍在增加,这些疫苗的可靠性仍然难以捉摸。众所周知,微量元素缺乏会增加个体对免疫功能障碍的易感性,并导致全球健康问题。在这种情况下,改善免疫防御系统以对抗这种流行病是绝对必要的。本综述的目的是确定微量元素补充剂与 COVID-19 之间的可能关系。几项临床研究证实,铜、硒和锌的不足会改变免疫系统并增加对病毒感染的脆弱性。基于这些微量营养素的抗病毒和抗炎作用,这些成分的膳食补充剂可能增强人体免疫系统并降低 COVID-19 感染的严重性似乎是合乎逻辑的。根据现有数据,我们假设临床使用一些必需的微量元素补充剂,如铜、硒和锌,可能是增强人类对新的大流行 COVID-19 及其新毒株的免疫力的预防和有希望的选择。锌不足会改变免疫系统并增加对病毒感染的脆弱性。基于这些微量营养素的抗病毒和抗炎作用,这些成分的膳食补充剂可能增强人体免疫系统并降低 COVID-19 感染的严重性似乎是合乎逻辑的。根据现有数据,我们假设临床使用一些必需的微量元素补充剂,如铜、硒和锌,可能是增强人类对新的大流行 COVID-19 及其新毒株的免疫力的预防和有希望的选择。锌不足会改变免疫系统并增加对病毒感染的脆弱性。基于这些微量营养素的抗病毒和抗炎作用,这些成分的膳食补充剂可能增强人体免疫系统并降低 COVID-19 感染的严重性似乎是合乎逻辑的。根据现有数据,我们假设临床使用一些必需的微量元素补充剂,如铜、硒和锌,可能是增强人类对新的大流行 COVID-19 及其新毒株的免疫力的预防和有希望的选择。这些成分的膳食补充剂可能会增强人体免疫系统并降低 COVID-19 感染的严重性,这似乎是合乎逻辑的。根据现有数据,我们假设临床使用一些必需的微量元素补充剂,如铜、硒和锌,可能是增强人类对新的大流行 COVID-19 及其新毒株的免疫力的预防和有希望的选择。这些成分的膳食补充剂可能会增强人体免疫系统并降低 COVID-19 感染的严重性,这似乎是合乎逻辑的。根据现有数据,我们假设临床使用一些必需的微量元素补充剂,如铜、硒和锌,可能是增强人类对新的大流行 COVID-19 及其新毒株的免疫力的预防和有希望的选择。
