Abstract
Multi-inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) can be associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection but can also be similar to other inflammatory syndromes. Here the authors characterise the plasma proteome phenotype in MIS-C and compare to other SARS-CoV-2 related syndromes and find disproportionately high IFN-γ responses in MIS-C patients.
