Expression Pattern of the SARS-CoV-2 Entry Genes <i>ACE2</i> and <i>TMPRSS2</i> in the Respiratory Tract
To address the expression pattern of the SARS-CoV-2 receptor ACE2 and the viral priming protease TMPRSS2 in the respiratory tract, this study investigated RNA sequencing transcriptome profiling of samples of airway and oral mucosa. As shown, ACE2 has medium levels of expression in both small airway...
