TLDR
The density of the expression levels of ACE2 in the CNS, the host–virus interaction and relate it to the pathogenesis and complications seen in the recent cases resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak are investigated.Abstract:
The recent outbreak of coronavirus infectious disease 2019 (COVID-19) has gripped the world with apprehension and has evoked a scare of epic proportion regarding its potential to spread and infect ...read more

TL;DR: MSC treatment may have the potential to end the high mortality rate of COVID-19 and it also limits the long-term inability of survivors, so it had better be tried for treating other pathogens worldwide.

Research Progress on the Role of Microglia Membrane Proteins or Receptors in Neuroinflammation and Degeneration
TL;DR: In this paper, several representative membrane proteins or receptors present on the surface of microglia are systematically reviewed and information about their structures, functions and specific roles in one or more neurological diseases are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Smell dysfunction in patients with COVID-19
TL;DR: Scientists analyze scientific data on anosmia in COVID-19 based on the results of primary research using PubMed, Google Scholar, and eLIBRARY databases to determine the final clinical and pathophysiological significance of olfactory symptoms.

TL;DR: The authors show that this protein binds at least 10 times more tightly than the corresponding spike protein of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)–CoV to their common host cell receptor, and test several published SARS-CoV RBD-specific monoclonal antibodies found that they do not have appreciable binding to 2019-nCoV S, suggesting that antibody cross-reactivity may be limited between the two RBDs.
Journal ArticleDOI
The neuroinvasive potential of SARS-CoV2 may play a role in the respiratory failure of COVID-19 patients
TL;DR: It remains to make clear whether the potential invasion of SARS‐CoV2 is partially responsible for the acute respiratory failure of patients with COVID‐19, which emerged in December 2019 in Wuhan, China and rapidly spreads around the world.
Journal ArticleDOI
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus infection causes neuronal death in the absence of encephalitis in mice transgenic for human ACE2.
TL;DR: The results show that neurons are a highly susceptible target for SARS-CoV and that only the absence of the host cell receptor prevents severe murine brain disease.

TL;DR: In this paper, the neurological manifestations of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) were studied in three categories: central nervous system (CNS) symptoms or diseases (headache, dizziness, impaired consciousness, ataxia, acute cerebrovascular disease, and epilepsy), peripheral nervous system symptoms (hypogeusia, hyposmia, hypopsia, and neuralgia), and skeletal muscular symptoms.

TISSUES 2.0: an integrative web resource on mammalian tissue expression
TL;DR: A database of gene–tissue associations in human, mouse, rat and pig by integrating multiple sources of evidence: transcriptomics covering all four species and proteomics (human only), manually curated and mined from the scientific literature is developed.
