The aging transcriptome and cellular landscape of the human lung in relation to SARS-CoV-2
4 Jan 2021
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Age is a major risk factor for severe coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19). Here, we interrogate the transcriptional features and cellular landscape of the aging human lung. By intersecting these age-associated changes with experimental data on SARS-CoV-2, we identify several factors that may contribute to the heightened severity of COVID-19 in older populations. The aging lung is transcriptionally...
