Examining the role of itaconite as an immune modulating metabolite in COVID-19

In the very beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak (February, 2020), a proteomics expert, Dr. Jun Qin and a clinical doctor, Dr. Zhongde Zhang, who worked on the front lines of COVID-19 research, wondered whether they could find clues as to what happened to living COVID-19 patients at the molecular level. As urine can be readily obtained from living people, they teamed up to look at all kinds of proteins in the urine.
