Title: Role of endothelial cell receptors in the context of SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19) Cord-id: nomxror5 Document date: 2021_1_26
ID: nomxror5
Snippet: Endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction contributes to COVID-19–associated vascular inflammation and coagulopathy, and the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor plays a role in EC dysfunction in COVID-19. To expand the understanding of the role of the ACE2 receptor relative to EC dysfunction, this review addresses (1) tissue distribution of the ACE2 protein and its mRNA expression in humans, (2) susceptibility of the capillary ECs to SARS-CoV-2 infection, and (3) the role of EC dysfunction
