ACE2 Peptide Fragment Interaction with Different S1 Protein Sites

Aleksei Kuznetsov et al.

Summary: This study investigates the effect of a specific peptide on the kinetics of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein S1 binding to ACE2 and provides insights into the virus-host interaction. The peptide inhibits the formation of the S1-ACE2 complex and stabilizes the complex when pre-incubated with S1 protein. Computational mapping reveals additional binding sites on the S1 protein surface, suggesting the potential for developing novel strategies to inhibit virus infections.

SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant replication in human bronchus and lung ex vivo

Kenrie P. Y. Hui et al.

Summary: SARS-CoV-2 variants pose a threat to global public health. The Omicron variant replicates faster in bronchi but less efficiently in the lung parenchyma compared to other variants. All variants of concern have similar cellular tropism.

David S. C. Hui et al.

Summary: This article reviews the latest information on the epidemiology, clinical features, diagnostics, clinical management, and prevention of COVID-19. COVID-19 is an atypical pneumonia caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2. It has high transmission potential and can be transmitted asymptomatically. Different variants have emerged, with Omicron being the predominant variant. PCR is the standard diagnostic test, while rapid antigen tests and serology tests are useful supplementary tests. Vaccination is crucial in controlling the pandemic.

Symptom prevalence, duration, and risk of hospital admission in individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2 during periods of omicron and delta variant dominance: a prospective observational study from the ZOE COVID Study

Cristina Menni et al.

Summary: This study investigated the differences in symptom prevalence, risk of hospital admission, and symptom duration between omicron and delta variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The study found that loss of smell was less common in omicron infections, sore throat was more common, and the rate of hospital admission was lower.

Assessment of T-cell Reactivity to the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Variant by Immunized Individuals

Lorenzo De Marco et al.

Summary: This cohort study in Italy showed that the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant was recognized by the cellular component of the immune system in immunized adults, despite mutations in the spike protein. It is reasonable to assume that protection from hospitalization and severe disease will be maintained.
