Micronucleus Production, Activation of DNA Damage Response and cGAS-STING Signaling in Syncytia Induced by SARS-CoV-2 Infection
2021-10-12
Abstract excerpt
SARS-CoV-2 infection could cause severe acute respiratory syndrome, largely attributed to dysregulated immune activation and extensive lung tissue damage. However, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Here, we reported that viral infection could induce syncytia formation within cells expressing ACE2 and the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, leading to the production of micronuclei with an average rate of ab...
