Abstract excerpt
To accelerate the development of antiviral drugs, we generated human iPS cell-derived myeloid cell lines, which were susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Viral isolation using clinical specimens showed that some novel cell lines performed better than VeroE6/TMPRSS2. In addition, viral genome mutations that occurred during viral passaging did not happen in VeroE6/TMPRSS2 but accumulated in these cell lines, and...
