It appears that a gene expression alteration occurs in long COVID-associated myocarditis, as four genes are upregulated: Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A (VEGFA), Forkhead Box O1 (FOXO1), C-X-C Chemokine Receptor 4 (CXCR4), Mothers Against Decapentaplegic Homolog 4 (SMAD4), and two are downregulated: Kirsten Rat Sarcoma Viral Oncogene Homolog (KRAS) and Thioredoxin (TXN) [29]. This evidence concerns the gene FOXO1 and myocarditis.
