Ante la aparición de un “nuevo virus” en la ciudad de Wuhan-China, llamado SARS-CoV-2, causante del conocido síndrome agudo respiratorio severo (COVID-19), muchos de científicos tratan de hallar una solución contra el virus que ha ocasionado una pandemia. En esta búsqueda, se encontró a una glicoproteína de transmembrana llamada dipeptidil peptidasa 4 o DPP-4 presente en la superficie de diferentes tipos de células y diana en la infección por el MERS-Co-V que abre una esperanza al sospechar que la DPP-4 puede ser un blanco en diferentes coronavirus al servir como estrategia terapéutica.

A ello se suman resultados que encuentran la DPP-4 elevada en pacientes con complicaciones graves ante COVID-19, lo que puede ser un posible marcador de gravedad. Sin embargo, aún existe poco énfasis en la identificación y asociación de esta glicoproteína a la COVID-19. Para ello, se realizó una revisión bibliográfica sobre los aspectos más significativos de la Dipeptidil Peptidasa 4 y su función frente a la COVID-19.

Given the appearance of a "new virus" in the of Wuhan city, China, called SARS-CoV-2, which causes the well-known severe acute respiratory syndrome (COVID-19), many scientists are trying to find a solution against the virus that has caused a pandemic. In this search, a transmembrane glycoprotein called dipeptidyl peptidase 4 or DPP-4 was found present on the surface of different types of cells and a target in MERS-Co-V infection, which opens hope by suspecting that DPP- 4 can be a target in different coronaviruses by serving as a therapeutic strategy. Added to this, there are results that find elevated DPP-4 in patients with severe complications from COVID-19, which may be a possible marker of severity. However, there is still little emphasis on the identification and association of this glycoprotein with COVID-19. To this effect, a bibliographic review was carried out on the most significant aspects of Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 and its function against COVID-19.
