Abstract:
The coronavirus responsible for the current global pandemic, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), is well-known for its respiratory symptoms. The scientific community and frontline health care providers have been documenting a number of systemic manifestations, including clinical findings in the oral cavity. Among these findings, oral ulcerative lesions are becoming more prevalent in COVID-19 infection, with differing severities and presentations. Health care professionals should, therefore, be aware of the possible implications that COVID-19 has on the oral cavity to judiciously document, monitor and refer patients with ulcerative lesions to the appropriate medical and dental specialists for management when necessary.

NK Cells
NK cells are a crucial part of our innate immune system, acting as the first line of defense against viral infections. These cells can recognize and kill infected cells without prior exposure to the virus, effectively slowing down the spread of infection. Additionally, NK cells produce proinflammatory...
