COVID-19 is a viral infection caused by SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, discovered in Wuhan,
China, in 2019. It is a potentially serious disease with high transmissibility, characterized by
worsening due to the exacerbated immune response, coordinated from pro-inflammatory
cytokines signaling, leading to tissue damage. Objective: to evaluate the immunological
profile of patients affected by COVID-19 through protein measurement that modulates
immune response and has a great influence on cytokine storms. Materials and methods: the
serum concentration analysis of the cytokine IL-6 was performed in patients with the disease.
This procedure was developed through the duplicate capture ELISA technique, following
manufacturer's standards, with the serum used from University Hospital of Maringa (HUM)
patients who were hospitalized in the ward (G2), and who were in the intensive care unit but
died (G3), as well as negative samples for COVID-19 (G1-control) from blood donors stored
in the Maringa Regional Blood Center. Data were analyzed using GraphPad Prism software,
version 7.0. Results: an increase in IL-6 was observed in more severe patients (G3).
Conclusion: the cytokine IL-6 has been shown to be important prognostic markers of
worsening of COVID-19.
