Expression of ACE2 in Human Neurons Supports the Neuro-Invasive Potential of COVID-19 Virus

Jiaxi Xu et al.

Summary: The recent outbreak of COVID-19 caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has spread rapidly worldwide. Similar to SARS-CoV, this new coronavirus utilizes ACE2 as an entry point to cells. Growing evidence suggests that COVID-19 patients, particularly those in severe condition, exhibit neurological symptoms, indicating the potential for SARS-CoV-2 to infect and damage neurons in the central nervous system. By studying human neurons derived from pluripotent stem cells, we have demonstrated the expression of ACE2 in human neurons. This highlights the importance of considering the neuro-invasive potential of SARS-CoV-2 as both a contributing factor and a therapeutic target for the severe respiratory symptoms in critical COVID-19 cases.

Impact of home confinement during COVID-19 pandemic on sleep parameters in Parkinson's disease

Niraj Kumar et al.

Summary: The study reveals a significant impact of home confinement during the COVID-19 pandemic on the sleep quality of PD patients, with some reporting new-onset or worsening sleep disturbances. Lack of family support, prolonged home confinement, and longer duration of PD are risk factors for the onset of sleep disturbances, while engaging in physical activity for over an hour per day and adopting new hobbies may contribute to better sleep quality.
