SARS-CoV-2 infects and replicates in photoreceptor and retinal ganglion cells of human retinal organoids

2021-10-12

Abstract excerpt

Several studies have pointed to retinal involvement in COVID-19 disease, yet many questions remain regarding the ability of SARS-CoV-2 to infect and replicate in retinal cells and its effects on the retina. Here we have used human stem cell–derived retinal organoids to study retinal infection by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Indeed, SARS-CoV-2 can infect and replicate in retinal organoids, as it is shown to infect differe...
