TMPRSS2 Impacts Cytokine Expression in Murine Dendritic Cells
Background: The transmembrane protease serine 2 (TMPRSS2) proteolytically activates the envelope proteins of several viruses for viral entry via membrane fusion and is therefore an interesting and promising target for the development of broad-spectrum ...

TMPRSS2 in microbial interactions: Insights from HKU1 and TcsH.
Transmembrane Serine Protease 2 (TMPRSS2), known primarily for its role as a protease, has emerged as a critical receptor for microbial agents such as human coronavirus HKU1 and exotoxin TcsH. HKU1 utilizes both sialoglycan and TMPRSS2 for cellular entry,

Quantitative expression of TMPRSS2 transcript in prostate tumor cells reflects TMPRSS2–ERG fusion status [PDF]
TMPRSS2-ERG fusion is the most common oncogenic rearrangement in prostate cancer (CaP). Owing to this chromosomal rearrangement one TMPRSS2 allele loses its promoter, and one of the ETS-related gene (ERG) alleles gains that promoter leading to its overexpression in these tumor cells.

Targeting TMPRSS2 in SARS-CoV-2 Infection [PDF]
Severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has rapidly caused a global pandemic associated with a novel respiratory infection: coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19). Angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) is necessary to facilitate SARS-CoV-2 infection, but-owing to its essential metabolic roles-it may be difficult to target it in ...

Detection of tmprss2-erg and tmprss2-egr1 gene fusion in prostate cancer from a Chinese population [PDF]
Abstract Background TMPRSS2: ETS gene fusion occurs recurrently in a high proportion of prostate cancer (PCa) patients in Western countries. However, for Chinese PCa patients, no solid conclusion could be drawn from the present studies, as the results varied considerably between the limited reports.
