Nasopharyngeal Expression of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) and Transmembrane Serine Protease 2 (TMPRSS2) in Children Compared to Adults Within Family Clusters Exposed to COVID-19

2021-03-09

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>There is accumulating evidence that the lower levels of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) in the nasal epithelium of children may be related to a lower incidence of COVID-19 compared to adults. However, no direct evidence is available to support this hypothesis. In this study, we compared the transcript levels of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 in nas...
