Interaction network of genes associated with selected neuropsychiatric disorders that were found differentially expressed in clinical samples from patients with COVID-19. The interaction network was built in Cytoscape v.3.8.0, using the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) identified in these samples, and categorized with the MalaCards Human Disease Database (https://www.malacards.org). Genes are represented in circles (red, upregulated and green, downregulated). Nodes with yellow edges represent elite genes, which are those likely associated with causing the disease, since their gene-disease associations are supported by manually curated and trustworthy sources, according to MalaCards Database.
