The Spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 impairs lipid metabolism and increases susceptibility to lipotoxicity: implication for a role of Nrf2
2022-04-19
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background/objectives</h4> Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients exhibit lipid metabolic alterations, but the mechanism remains unknown. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether the Spike protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) impairs lipid metabolism in host cells. <h4>Methods</h4> A Spike cell line in HEK293 was generated using the pcDNA vector carrying the Spi...
