Cell death mechanisms involved in cell injury caused by SARS-CoV-2

Marillya Morais da Silva et al.

Summary: Covid-19, caused by SARS-CoV-2, is an emerging infectious disease with wide-ranging extrapulmonary symptoms. While the specific mechanisms behind cell death in different tissues remain unknown, angiotensin converting enzyme 2 plays a key role in the entry of the virus into host cells.

Neuroinvasion of SARS-CoV-2 in human and mouse brain

Eric Song et al.

Summary: The study showed through three approaches that SARS-CoV-2 is capable of infecting brain neurons, leading to metabolic changes and pathological features without triggering type I interferon responses. These results provide evidence for the neuroinvasive capacity of SARS-CoV-2 and the unexpected consequence of direct infection of neurons by the virus.

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.

Characterization of SARS-CoV-2 proteins reveals Orf6 pathogenicity, subcellular localization, host interactions and attenuation by Selinexor

Jin-Gu Lee et al.

Summary: This study identified Orf6 as a highly pathogenic protein in the SARS-CoV-2 genome and its interaction with key host proteins. The drug Selinexor was found to attenuate Orf6-induced cellular toxicity, suggesting it as a potential candidate for targeting Orf6 host protein interactions that lead to cytotoxicity.

A prospective study of long-term outcomes among hospitalized COVID-19 patients with and without neurological complications

Jennifer A. Frontera et al.

Summary: Long-term outcomes of COVID-19 hospitalized patients, particularly those with neurological complications, showed impairments in daily living activities, cognition, anxiety, depression, and sleep. Patients with neurological complications had significantly worse functional outcomes compared to those without.

Dysregulation of brain and choroid plexus cell types in severe COVID-19

Andrew C. Yang et al.

Summary: This study found that patients with COVID-19 exhibited widespread cellular perturbations in the brain, including the relay of peripheral inflammation into the brain by choroid plexus barrier cells and infiltration of peripheral T cells. Additionally, COVID-19 affected synaptic signaling of upper-layer excitatory neurons linked to cognitive function.
