SARS-CoV-2 Causes a Systemically Multiple Organs Damages and Dissemination in Hamsters

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported that Syrian hamsters are highly permissive to SARS-CoV-2 and exhibit diffuse alveolar damage and induced extrapulmonary multi-organs damage, including spleen, lymph nodes, different segments of alimentary tract, kidney, adrenal gland, ovary, vesicular gland and prostate damage, at 3-7 days post inoculation (dpi).

Heterogeneity in Regional Damage Detected by Neuroimaging and Neuropathological Studies in Older Adults With COVID-19: A Cognitive-Neuroscience Systematic Review to Inform the Long-Term Impact of the Virus on Neurocognitive Trajectories

TL;DR: In this article, a systematic review aimed at summarising the literature on neuroimaging and neuropathological findings in older over-60 patients with COVID-19 following a cognitive neuroscientific perspective, to clarify the most vulnerable brain areas and speculate on the possible cognitive consequences.

Infection of Brain Pericytes Underlying Neuropathology of COVID-19 Patients.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used state-of-the-art multiplexed immunostaining of human brains and demonstrated that expression of the SARS-CoV-2 receptor ACE2 is restricted to a subset of neurovascular pericytes.

Difficulties in Differentiating Coronaviruses from Subcellular Structures in Human Tissues by Electron Microscopy.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe morphologic features of coronavirus that distinguish it from subcellular structures, including particle size range (60-140 nm), intracellular particle location within membrane-bound vacuoles, and a nucleocapsid appearing in cross section as dense dots (6-12 nm) within the particles.

Administration of aerosolized SARS-CoV-2 to K18-hACE2 mice uncouples respiratory infection from fatal neuroinvasion

- 28 Jan 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors used an inhalation tower system that allows exposure of unanesthetized mice to aerosolized virus under controlled conditions, which resulted in robust viral replication in the respiratory tract, anosmia, and airway obstruction but did not lead to fatal viral neuroinvasion.
