Correlations between renal androgen receptor mRNA expression and SARS-CoV-2 viral entry proteins. Animals were treated with dihydrotestosterone (DHT) or vehicle (Veh) and maintained in low (LFD) or high (HFD) fat diet for 90 days. Androgen receptor and SARS-CoV-2 viral entry proteins renal mRNA expression was quantified by RT-qPCR. Pearson’s correlation coefficients (r) were calculated between androgen receptor and Ace2 (A), Tmprss2 (B), Tmprss4 (C), furin (D), cathepsin L (E), and ADAM17 (F) mRNA expression.
