Changes in the expression of STAT3 and α-SMA in PBMCs of COVID-19 patients. The expression of (A) STAT3 and (B) α-SMA transcripts. The gene expression data were normalized to GAPDH. (C) The protein expression levels of STAT3 and α-SMA were investigated in PBMCs of COVID-19 patients compared to healthy controls. The histogram represented the intensity of (D) STAT3 and (E) α-SMA proteins for each group which was normalized to the β-actin band; **P-value < 0.01; ***P-value < 0.001
