The SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein induces microglia senescence- mediated cognitive impairment via glycolysis COVID-19-associated cognitive dysfunction has emerged as a significant public health challenge, creating substantial socioeconomic burdens for affected individuals, their families, and healthcare syst...

Researchers found that in mice, the SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein triggers microglial senescence and cognitive impairment by disrupting mitochondria and shifting energy use toward glycolysis.

Blocking glycolysis reversed the damage.
