Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) is an emerging novel respiratory infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that rapidly spread worldwide. In addition to lung injury, Covid-19 patients may develop extrapulmonary symptoms, including cardiac, liver, kidney, digestive tract, and neurological injuries. Angiotensin converting enzyme 2 is the major receptor for the entry of SARS-CoV-2 into host cells. The specific mechanisms that lead to cell death in different tissues during infection by SARS-CoV-2 remains unknown. Based on data of the previous human coronavirus SARS-CoV together with information about SARS-CoV-2, this review provides a summary of the mechanisms involved in cell death, including apoptosis, autophagy, and necrosis, provoked by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus.
新型冠状病毒病（COVID-19）是一种由严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒 2（SARS-CoV-2）引起的新发呼吸道传染病，在全球迅速蔓延。除肺部损伤外，COVID-19 患者还可能出现肺外症状，包括心脏、肝脏、肾脏、消化道和神经系统损伤。血管紧张素转换酶 2 是 SARS-CoV-2 进入宿主细胞的主要受体。SARS-CoV-2 感染导致不同组织细胞死亡的具体机制尚不清楚。基于之前人类冠状病毒 SARS-CoV 的数据以及关于 SARS-CoV-2 的信息，本综述总结了严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒引起的细胞死亡机制，包括凋亡、自噬和坏死。
