Effect of SARS-CoV Infection in Expression Levels of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 in Lung Epithelial Cells (Calu-3)
(A) ACE2 expression was significantly decreased at 24- and 48-h time points following infections. (B) However, no significant change in the expression of TMPRSS2 was observed following infection with SARS-CoV-1. ∗p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01, ∗∗∗p < 0.001, ∗∗∗∗p < 0.0001. Results are presented as mean (± SEM) mRNA expression.
