Temperature-Dependent Replication and Sensitivity to Innate Immunity of Human Coronavirus HKU1

2026-05-12

Abstract excerpt

The human coronavirus HKU1, causing common colds and occasionally severe illness, remains largely uncharacterized because it has not been successfully grown on immortalized cells. Here, we identified Caco2 cells overexpressing TMPRSS2, the HKU1 receptor, as being highly permissive to infection. HKU1 replicated efficiently, formed syncytia and released infectious progeny in these cells at 33°C, the temperature of t...
