    Snippet: Interestingly, it is expressed more in male lungs than female lungs 3 . Consistently, the expression of ACE2 is downregulated by estrogen E2 4 . This was confirmed in animal experiments, showing that estrogen mitigates the susceptibility and the severity of phenotype for SARS-CoV, while ovariectomy or intervention with estrogen receptor inhibitors increased the mortality of female mice 5 .

    Document: Interestingly, it is expressed more in male lungs than female lungs 3 . Consistently, the expression of ACE2 is downregulated by estrogen E2 4 . This was confirmed in animal experiments, showing that estrogen mitigates the susceptibility and the severity of phenotype for SARS-CoV, while ovariectomy or intervention with estrogen receptor inhibitors increased the mortality of female mice 5 . An anti-virus drug study showed that estrogen receptor inhibitors possess a great potency in antiviral activity screening against MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV and other RNA virus, and they also have an anti-Ebola virus effect in mice 6 . These studies suggest that E2 might play a protective role in SARS-CoV or MERS-CoV infection with lower susceptibility, severity and better outcomes of their corresponding diseases.
