Abstract
Coronaviruses have a high risk of spreading and are particularly dangerous to renal tissue. Due to the presence of angiotensin converting enzyme type 2 (ACE2), transmembrane serine protease 2, and cathepsin L in the organs, which are thought to be targets for SARS-CoV-2, a new coronavirus infection can result in a variety of clinical abnormalities of the kidneys. The severity of numerous organ abnormalities might range from mild acute respiratory virus infections to other clinical symptoms.
