Our previous data on children and adolescents [18] showing the long-lasting effects of the infection (long-COVID-19) revealed that NGF serum content was lower in post-infected-COVID-19 individuals when compared to healthy controls; interestingly, BDNF levels were found to be higher compared to healthy individuals only in post-infected-COVID-19 symptomatic and future long-COVID-19 girls, leaving the BDNF levels unchanged in asymptomatic individuals when compared to controls [18]. This evidence concerns the gene BDNF and infection.
