A virus-specific monocyte inflammatory phenotype is induced by SARS-CoV-2 at the immune–epithelial interface
28 Dec 2021
Abstract excerpt
Infection by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) provokes a potentially fatal pneumonia with multiorgan failure, and high systemic inflammation. To gain mechanistic insight and ferret out the root of this immune dysregulation, we modeled, by in vitro coculture, the interactions between infected epithelial cells and immunocytes. A strong response was induced in monocytes and B cells, with...
