Many viruses require proteolytic activation of their envelope proteins for infectivity, and relevant host proteases provide promising drug targets. The transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) has been identified as a major activating influenza A virus (IAV) various coronaviruses (CoV). Increased TMPRSS2 expression associated with higher risk severe infection enhanced susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2. Here, we found that Legionella pneumophila stimulates the increased TMPRSS2-mRNA in Calu-3 human airway cells. We flagellin dominant structural component inducing expression. flagellin-induced increase was not observed at this magnitude other virus-activating proteases. also significantly by LPS, Pam3Cys, Streptococcus pneumoniae , although less pronounced.

In addition, our indicate physiological role antimicrobial response.

The aim of the study was to identify association between four selected COVID-19 polymorphisms ACE2 and TMPRSS2 receptors genes with presence long-COVID symptomatology in survivors. These were as they associate entry SARS-CoV-2 virus into cells, so could be important for prognoses symptoms. Two hundred ninety-three (n = 293, 49.5% female, mean age: 55.6 ± 12.9 years) individuals who had been previously hospitalized due included. Three potential genotypes following single nucleotide (SNPs) obtained from non-stimulated saliva samples participants: (rs2285666), (rs2074192), (rs12329760), (rs2070788). Participants asked self-report any post-COVID defined a symptom that started no later than one month after acute infection whether persisted at time study. At (mean: 17.8, SD: 5.2 months hospital discharge), 87.7% patients reported least symptom. Fatigue (62.8%), pain (39.9%) or memory loss (32.1%) most prevalent Overall, differences symptoms dependent on rs2285666, rs2074192, rs12329760, rs2070788 genotypes. SNPs assessed, albeit associated severity, do not predispose developing people during first wave pandemic.

The novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has evolved into a global pandemic, with an alarming infectivity and mortality rate. Studies have examined genetic effects on SARS-CoV-2 disease susceptibility severity within Eurasian populations. These studies identified contrasting the of between African Genetic factors can explain some diversity observed severity. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) receptor genes demonstrated detrimental protective across ethnic groups. For example, TT genotype rs2285666 (Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE2)) is associated disease, which found at higher frequency Asian individuals compared to European individuals. In this study, we four receptors, ACE2, Transmembrane serine protease (TMPRSS2), Neuropilin-1 (NRP1), Basigin (CD147). A total 42 SNPs located receptors were reviewed:

TMPRSS2, a human transmembrane protease enzyme, plays crucial role in the spread of certain viruses, including influenza and coronaviruses. This enzyme promotes viral infection by cleaving glycoproteins, which helps viruses like SARS-CoV-2 A enter cells more effectively. Genetic differences TMPRSS2 may affect people’s susceptibility to COVID-19, underscoring need for studies that consider diverse populations. Beyond infectious diseases, has also been linked some cancers, suggesting it could be valuable target drug development. review provides summary inhibitors currently under study, with already clinical trials test their effectiveness against infections. As we uncover about TMPRSS2’s pathogenesis, open new doors therapies combat future outbreaks.
