Résumé
Diarrhea occurs in up to 50% of cases of COVID-19. Nonetheless, the pathophysiologic mechanism(s) have not been determined. This was examined using normal human enteroid monolayers exposed apically to live SARS-CoV-2 or non-replicating virus like particles (VLPs) bearing the four SARS-CoV-2 structural proteins or irradiated virus, all of which bound and entered enterocytes. Live virus and VLPs increased secretion of multiple cytokines and reduced mRNAs of ACE2, NHE3 and DRA. IL-6 plus IL-8 alone reduced NHE3 mRNA and protein and DRA mRNA. Neither VLPs nor IL-6 plus IL-8 alone altered Cl The pathophysiology of COVID-19 diarrhea appears to be a unique example of a calcium dependent inflammatory diarrhea, that is caused by direct viral effects plus the virus-induced intestinal epithelial cytokine secretion.

CONCLUSIONS
The pathophysiology of COVID-19 diarrhea appears to be a unique example of a calcium dependent inflammatory diarrhea, that is caused by direct viral effects plus the virus-induced intestinal epithelial cytokine secretion.
