The antiandrogen enzalutamide downregulates TMPRSS2 and reduces cellular entry of SARS-CoV-2 in human lung cells
TMPRSS2 is regulated by androgen receptor signalling in the prostate, however it is unclear if blocking this signalling is beneficial in the context of SARS-CoV-2 lung infection. Here the authors show that antiandrogen treatment downregulates TMPRSS2 in the lung and reduces viral entry and infection...

Sumario: | TMPRSS2 is regulated by androgen receptor signalling in the prostate, however it is unclear if blocking this signalling is beneficial in the context of SARS-CoV-2 lung infection. Here the authors show that antiandrogen treatment downregulates TMPRSS2 in the lung and reduces viral entry and infection. |
