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 ...

TMPRSS2 Impacts Cytokine Expression in Murine Dendritic Cells [PDF]
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 is a functional receptor for human coronavirus HKU1 [PDF]
Four endemic seasonal human coronaviruses causing common colds circulate worldwide: HKU1, 229E, NL63 and OC43 (ref. 1). After binding to cellular receptors, coronavirus spike proteins are primed for fusion by transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) or endosomal cathepsins2-9.

TMPRSS2 in microbial interactions: Insights from HKU1 and TcsH. [PDF]
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,

TMPRSS2 Isoform 1 Activates Respiratory Viruses and Is Expressed in Viral Target Cells. [PDF]
The cellular protease TMPRSS2 cleaves and activates the influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) and TMPRSS2 expression is essential for viral spread and pathogenesis in mice.

Molecular genetic analyses of the TMPRSS2-ERG and TMPRSS2-ETV1 gene fusions in 50 cases of prostate cancer [PDF]
Recently, gene fusions between the androgen responsive gene TMPRSS2 and members of the ETS-family of DNA-binding transcription factor genes were found in prostate cancer. Recurrent fusions were identified between the 5'-noncoding region of TMPRSS2 and ERG, or less frequently ETV1 or ETV4, resulting in overexpression of normal or truncated ETS-proteins.

Increased ACE2 and TMPRSS2 expression in ulcerative colitis [PDF]
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a cryptogenic inflammatory bowel disease, and there is an urgent need to elucidate its pathogenesis. ACE2 and TMPRSS2, the entry molecules of SARS-CoV-2, are reportedly associated with the disease; however, no consensus has been reached yet.

A Quantum Chemical Study on the Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Activity of TMPRSS2 Inhibitors [PDF]
Nafamostat and camostat are known to inhibit the spike protein-mediated fusion of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) by forming a covalent bond with the human transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) enzyme.
