Preferential apical infection of Caco-2 intestinal cell monolayers by SARS-CoV-2 is associated with damage to cellular barrier integrity: Implications for the pathophysiology of COVID-19. [PDF]
PLoS ONESARS-CoV-2 can infect different organs, including the intestine. In an in vitro model of Caco-2 intestinal cell line, we previously found that SARS-CoV-2 modulates the ACE2 receptor expression and affects the expression of molecules involved in ...

Multifactorial Analysis Identifies Conditions for Robust HCoV-OC43 Replication in Primary Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells Cultured at Air–Liquid Interface [PDF]
CellsAir–liquid interface (ALI) cultures recapitulate key features of the airway epithelium by driving basal cell differentiation into ciliated, club, and goblet cells and by generating a functional mucus barrier, thereby representing a highly relevant model ...
