Antihypertensive drug treatment and susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection in human PSC-derived cardiomyocytes and primary endothelial cells

Antihypertensive drug treatment and susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection in human PSC-derived cardiomyocytes and primary endothelial cells

The pathogenicity of extreme acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been attributed to its skill to enter by means of the membrane-bound angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor. Subsequently, it has been closely speculated that angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) remedy could modulate SARS-CoV-2 an infection. On this examine, publicity of human…
