DNA Methylation Architecture of the <i>ACE2</i> gene in Nasal Cells

2020-08-31

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has led to the global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. SARS-CoV-2 enters cells via angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptors, highly expressed in nasal epithelium with parallel high infectivity. 1,2 The nasal epigenome is in direct contact with the environment and could explain COVID-19 disparities by reflecting soci...
