Emerging viruses description have grown at an unprecedented rate since the beginning of the 21st century. The emergence of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and its related illness, Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been reported as the third highly pathogenic coronavirus introducing itself into human population in the current era after the SARS-CoV and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV). Molecular and cellular studies considering the pathogenesis of this novel coronavirus are still in the early stages of research, however, regarding the similarity of SARS-CoV-2 and other coronaviruses, it could be hypothesized that the NF-κB, Cytokine regulation, ERK, and TNF-α signaling pathways are the more likely causes of inflammation upon onset of COVID-19. There are several drugs prescribed and used to alleviate the activity of these inflammatory cellular signaling pathways which might be beneficial for developing novel therapeutic modalities against COVID-19. In this review, we briefly summarized the alteration of cellular signaling pathways affected by coronavirus infection, particularly SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV and tabulated the current therapeutic agents approved for previous human diseases.
