SARS-CoV-2 infection of human ACE2-transgenic mice causes severe lung inflammation and impaired function.

TL;DR: The transgenic mice expressing the human angiotensin I-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor driven by the cytokeratin-18 (K18) gene promoter are evaluated as a model of SARS-CoV-2 infection to define the basis of lung disease and test immune and antiviral-based countermeasures.
Journal ArticleDOI

A SARS-CoV-2 Infection Model in Mice Demonstrates Protection by Neutralizing Antibodies.

TL;DR: Transduced replication-defective adenoviruses encoding human ACE2 via intranasal administration into BALB/c mice and established receptor expression in lung tissues and passive transfer of a neutralizing monoclonal antibody reduced viral burden in the lung and mitigated inflammation and weight loss.
