Single-cell RNA expression profiling of ACE2, the putative receptor of Wuhan 2019-nCov
TL;DR: A biological background for the epidemic investigation of the 2019-nCov infection disease is provided, and the result indicates that the ACE2 virus receptor expression is concentrated in a small population of type II alveolar cells (AT2).
Journal ArticleDOI
Single-Cell RNA Expression Profiling of ACE2, the Receptor of SARS-CoV-2.
TL;DR: The recently developed single-cell RNA-sequencing technology enables us to study the ACE2 expression in each cell type and provides quantitative information at a single- cell resolution, and shows that in the normal human lung, ACE2 is mainly expressed by type II alveolar (AT2) and type I alveolars (AT1) epithelial cells.

Single-cell RNA expression profiling of ACE2, the receptor of SARS-CoV-2
TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper analyzed the ACE2 RNA expression profile in the normal human lungs and found that ACE2 receptor expression is concentrated in a small population of type II alveolar cells (AT2).
Journal ArticleDOI
Single-cell analysis identified lung progenitor cells in COVID-19 patients.
TL;DR: This work focused on crucial roles of lung progenitor cells in alveolar cell regeneration and epithelial barrier re‐establishment and aimed to uncover a possible mechanism of lung repair after severe SARS‐CoV‐2 infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is shown that the constitutive expression of a native antimicrobial peptide LL‐37 in transgenic mice aids in clearing Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAO1), a major pathogen of clinical pulmonary infection.
