ACE2 Expression is elevated in Airway Epithelial Cells from aged and male donors but reduced in asthma

2020-07-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Rationale</h4> COVID-19 is complicated by acute lung injury, and death in some individuals. It is caused by SARS-CoV-2 that requires the ACE2 receptor and serine proteases to enter airway epithelial cells (AECs). <h4>Objective</h4> To determine what factors are associated with ACE2 expression particularly in patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). <h4>Methods</h4> We obtained upp...
