SARS-CoV-2 Infects Peripheral Sensory Neurons and Promotes Axonal Degeneration via TRPV1 Activation

2025-03-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Common neurological symptoms of COVID-19, such as anosmia, headaches, and cognitive dysfunction, depend on interactions between the peripheral and central nervous systems. However, the molecular mechanisms by which SARS-CoV-2 affects the peripheral nervous system remain poorly understood, with ongoing debate about whether sensory neurons can be directly infected by the virus. In this study, human...
