Enalaprilat and losartan decrease erythroid precursors frequency in cells from patients with polycythemia vera

Hematology, 2023
Objective: Polycythemia Vera (PV) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by the overproduction of red blood cells. First-line therapies are directed at lowering hematocrit levels. After the discovery of a mutation in the Janus kinase 2 (JAK2V617F)

Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 is a functional receptor for the SARS coronavirus

Nature, 2003
Spike (S) proteins of coronaviruses, including the coronavirus that causes severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), associate with cellular receptors to mediate infection of their target cells. Here we identify a metallopeptidase, angiotensin-converting

Lethality of SARS-CoV-2 infection in K18 human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 transgenic mice

Nature Communications, 2020
Vaccine and antiviral development against SARS-CoV-2 infection or COVID-19 disease would benefit from validated small animal models. Here, we show that transgenic mice expressing human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2) by the human cytokeratin 18 ...
