Well-Differentiated Liver Cancers Reveal the Potential Link Between ACE2 Dysfunction and Metabolic Breakdown.
2021-08-20
Abstract excerpt
Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is the receptor of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) causing Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).Transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) is a coreceptor.Abnormal hepatic function in COVID-19 suggests specific or bystander liver disease.Because liver cancer cells express the ACE2viral receptor, they arewidely usedas models of SARS-CoV-2 infecti...
