Five receptors/interactors of coronaviruses may play a key role in COVID‐19 comorbidities. They are expressed in almost any body district and, regardless of coronavirus infection, are associated with several diseases, including those most frequently cooccurring in COVID‐19 patients. Their expression is strongly altered in many cancers and at least three of them may be relevant markers in kidney, liver and thyroid cancers.
