T509 |
0-139 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The fact that SARS- and MERS-CoV infections are potentiated by TMPRSS2 indicates that TMPRSS2 is a promising target for therapeutic agents. |
T510 |
140-489 |
Sentence |
denotes |
For example, several Ser protease inhibitors such as camostat mesylate inhibit TMPRSS2–ACE2-involved SARS-CoV-2 entry. camostat, a serine protease inhibitor, reduces influenza virus titers in cell culture. camostat-treated TMPRSS2 inhibition in Calu-3 cells greatly reduces SARS-CoV viral titers and improves survival rate in SARS-CoV infected mice. |
T511 |
490-665 |
Sentence |
denotes |
A treatment of 10-μM camostat blocks MERS-CoV entry to African green monkey kidney (Vero)-TMPRSS2 cells and blocks viral RNA synthesis in Calu-3 cells upon MERS-CoV infection. |
T512 |
666-757 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Aprotinin is a polypeptide with 58 amino acid residues that was isolated from bovine lungs. |
T513 |
758-1067 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Another serine protease inhibitor, nafamostat, inhibits MERS-CoV entry and infection by TMPRSS2 inhibition [93]. nafamostat mesylate blocks the TMPRSS2–ACE2-involved SARS-CoV-2 envelope–PM fusion and prevents SARS-CoV-2 entry [95]. nafamostat mesylate inhibits viral entry and thrombosis in COVID-19 patients. |
T514 |
1068-1242 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Similarly, an FDA-approved mucolytic cough suppressant, Bromhexine hydrochloride (BHH), inhibits TMPRSS2 (IC50 0.75 μM) and hence blocks infection of CoV and influenza virus. |
T515 |
1243-1324 |
Sentence |
denotes |
MPRSS2 as a host factor plays a pivotal role in SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV infections. |
T516 |
1325-1383 |
Sentence |
denotes |
FDA-approved TMPRSS2 inhibitors are yet under development. |
T517 |
1384-1523 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Because TMPRSS2 mediates efficient viral entry and replication, it should be a promising target for new therapeutics against CoV infection. |
