A recombinant fragment of Human surfactant protein D binds Spike protein and inhibits infectivity and replication of SARS-CoV-2 in clinical samples

2020-12-18

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Rationale</h4> COVID-19 is an acute infectious disease caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Human surfactant protein D (SP-D) is known to interact with spike protein of SARS-CoV, but its immune-surveillance against SARS-CoV-2 is not known. <h4>Objective</h4> This study aimed to examine the potential of a recombinant fragment of human SP-D (rfhSP-D) as an inhibitor of re...
