Expression of SARS-CoV-2-related receptors in cells of the neurovascular unit: implications for HIV-1 infection
29 Jul 2021
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Neurological complications are common in patients affected by COVID-19 due to the ability of SARS-CoV-2 to infect brains. While the mechanisms of this process are not fully understood, it has been proposed that SARS-CoV-2 can infect the cells of the neurovascular unit (NVU), which form the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The aim of the current study was to analyze the expression pattern of the main...
