Drugs that inhibit TMEM16 proteins block SARS-CoV-2 spike-induced syncytia

Luca Braga et al.

Summary: COVID-19 patients' lungs contain infected pneumocytes with abnormal morphology and frequent multinucleation, leading to the formation of syncytia driven by the activation of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. The antihelminthic drug niclosamide has shown to effectively inhibit cell fusion, potentially providing a new therapeutic approach for COVID-19 disease pathogenesis.

Nanobody cocktails potently neutralize SARS-CoV-2 D614G N501Y variant and protect mice

Phillip Pymm et al.

Summary: Neutralizing antibodies, particularly nanobodies, play a crucial role in immunity against SARS-CoV-2 and in the development of therapeutics for COVID-19. Researchers have identified high-affinity nanobodies that effectively disrupt the interaction between the virus and the human host cell receptor ACE2, offering promising prophylactic potential against SARS-CoV-2. Studies have shown that nanobody-Fc fusions can block viral engagement with host cells and significantly reduce viral loads in infected mice, suggesting their use as preventive agents against COVID-19.
