ABSTRACT
The serum level of C-reactive protein (CRP) is a significant independent risk factor for Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). A link was found between serum CRP and genetic diversity within the CRP gene in earlier research. This study examined whether CRP rs1205 and rs1800947 polymorphisms were associated with COVID-19 mortality among various severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants. We genotyped CRP rs1205 and rs1800947 polymorphisms in 2023 deceased and 2307 recovered patients using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. There was a significant difference between the recovered and the deceased patients in terms of the minor allele frequency of CRP rs1205 T and rs1800947 G. In all three variants, COVID-19 mortality rates were associated with CRP rs1800947 GG genotype. Furthermore, CRP rs1205 CC and rs1800947 GG genotypes showed higher CRP levels. It was found that the G-T haplotype was prevalent in all SARS-CoV-2 variants. The C-C and C-T haplotypes were statistically significant in Delta and Omicron BA.5 variants, respectively. In conclusion, polymorphisms within the CRP gene may relate to serum CRP levels and mortality among COVID-19 patients. In order to verify the utility of CRP polymorphism correlation in predicting COVID-19 mortality, a replication of these results is needed.
