2022-09-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Angiotensin converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) and Transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) are key proteins that serve as receptors and co-receptor in the Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infective process, which could affect host susceptibility or severity in response to infection. We evaluated the expression levels of above genes to consider the probable relationship w...
