Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Infects and Damages the Mature and Immature Olfactory Sensory Neurons of Hamsters

Anna Jinxia Zhang et al.

Summary: COVID-19 primarily affects the respiratory tract but can also lead to olfactory dysfunction, particularly in young patients. In a study using Syrian hamsters, it was found that SARS-CoV-2 infection could impact mature and immature olfactory neurons and supporting cells, potentially contributing to the olfactory dysfunction seen in COVID-19 patients.

Anosmia in COVID-19: Underlying Mechanisms and Assessment of an Olfactory Route to Brain Infection

Rafal Butowt et al.

Summary: The prevalence of smell and taste dysfunction in COVID-19 differs between populations, possibly due to differences in virus strains or host proteins. Recent progress has been made in defining the cellular and molecular mechanisms of virus-induced anosmia, focusing on the role of sustentacular cells in the olfactory epithelium. The potential for using smell and taste dysfunctions as early diagnostic tools in COVID-19 is discussed.

Olfactory transmucosal SARS-CoV-2 invasion as a port of central nervous system entry in individuals with COVID-19

Jenny Meinhardt et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates the presence of SARS-CoV-2 in the nasopharynx and brain, suggesting the virus may enter the CNS through the olfactory mucosa. The virus utilizes the neural-mucosal interface in the olfactory mucosa to penetrate the nervous system, affecting various neuroanatomical areas, including the primary respiratory and cardiovascular control center.

What can we learn from brain autopsies in COVID-19?

Shibani S. Mukerji et al.

Summary: SARS-CoV-2 infection in causing COVID-19 can lead to a range of neurological symptoms, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear, and the potential for neuroinvasion by the virus is uncertain. Human autopsies have revealed the neuropathological consequences of infection, and incorporating brain tissue research findings into our understanding of clinical disease will guide management and research priorities related to neurological morbidity.

Classical and alternative receptors for SARS-CoV-2 therapeutic strategy

Siti Fathiah Masre et al.

Summary: Understanding the key molecules involved in SARS-CoV-2 entry is crucial for understanding viral infection and spread. Research has identified ACE2 receptor and TMPRSS2 as main entry molecules, but other receptors and proteases also play important roles in viral transmission. This review summarizes the types of SARS-CoV-2 entry molecules and their crucial roles in virus binding, protein priming, and membrane fusion for infection.

The olfactory nerve is not a likely route to brain infection in COVID-19: a critical review of data from humans and animal models

Rafal Butowt et al.

Summary: Recent studies suggest that the novel coronavirus may infect the brain through the olfactory nerve, causing loss of smell and taste. However, the current evidence for infection of olfactory neurons leading to brain infection is inconclusive, with conflicting results from animal and human studies. More research is needed to determine the exact mechanisms and routes of brain infection by SARS-CoV-2.

Summary: Many patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection exhibit neurological signs and symptoms, but autopsy results show that most brains have low levels of detectable virus and it does not correlate with the histopathological alterations.

Multiple sites on SARS-CoV-2 spike protein are susceptible to proteolysis by cathepsins B, K, L, S, and V

Keval Bollavaram et al.

Summary: This study identifies the crucial role of proteases, particularly cathepsins B, K, L, S, and V, in SARS-CoV-2 infection and proposes methodologies to identify other proteases involved in viral entry. It emphasizes the importance of considering additional proteases in COVID-19 research, especially in cases of exacerbated damage in inflammatory conditions where these proteases are upregulated.

COVID-19-related anosmia is associated with viral persistence and inflammation in human olfactory epithelium and brain infection in hamsters

Guilherme Dias de Melo et al.

Summary: Recent investigations have shown that olfactory and taste dysfunction are common in mildly symptomatic COVID-19 patients. Research on the olfactory neuroepithelium revealed that SARS-CoV-2 infection can cause local inflammation and lead to acute loss of smell, which may account for prolonged symptoms of COVID-19 such as anosmia.

Miao-Miao Zhao et al.

Summary: CTSL plays a crucial role in COVID-19 patients, with its levels positively correlated with disease severity. Research showed that CTSL promotes SARS-CoV-2 virus entry into cells, and the CTSL inhibitor amantadine can inhibit this process, providing a direction for the development of new anti-COVID-19 drugs.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Experimental studies in animals infected with SARS-CoV-2 have revealed severe lung and brain damage, as well as early onset anosmia in mice. Excitingly, infusion of convalescent plasma from recovered patients has shown to protect against lethal disease, though it does not prevent anosmia.
