Distinct mechanisms for TMPRSS2 expression explain organ-specific inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 infection by enzalutamide

Enzalutamide, an approved drug for prostate cancer, acts on TMPRSS2 expression, a key mediator for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Here, the authors characterize the anti-SARS-CoV-2 effects of Enzalutamide in prostate cancer cells, lung cancer cells, human lung organoids and in hACE2-transduced Tmprss2 knocko...
