SARS-CoV-2 entry factors are highly expressed in nasal epithelial cells together with innate immune genes
Open accessAbstract
We investigated SARS-CoV-2 potential tropism by surveying expression of viral entry-associated genes in single-cell RNA-sequencing data from multiple tissues from healthy human donors. We co-detected these transcripts in specific respiratory, corneal and intestinal epithelial cells, potentially explaining the high efficiency of SARS-CoV-2 transmission. These genes are co-expressed in nasal epithelial cells with genes involved in innate immunity, highlighting the cells’ potential role in initial viral infection, spread and clearance. The study offers a useful resource for further lines of inquiry with valuable clinical samples from COVID-19 patients and we provide our data in a comprehensive, open and user-friendly fashion at www.covid19cellatlas.org . An analysis of single-cell transcriptomics datasets from different tissues shows that ACE2 and TMPRSS2 are co-expressed in respiratory, corneal and intestinal epithelial cell populations, and that respiratory expression of ACE2 is associated with genes involved in innate immunity.

“Although scSeq revealed ACE2 transcripts in only a subset of OE cells, this low level of observed expression matches or exceeds that observed in respiratory cells types that are infected by CoV-2 in COVID-19 patients (39) (Fig. 3).”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIn the citing paper
“Probably most important for the high efficacy of SARS-CoV-2 transmission is the high co-expression of ACE2 and TMPRSS2 in nasal epithelial cells, particularly in two types of goblet cells and a subset of ciliated cells, showing the highest expression among all cells in the respiratory tree (Figure 2 A).”

“An interesting observation of this study was the high co-expression of genes involved in early steps of antiviral immune responses in these epithelial cells, which indicated the potential for these specialized nasal cells to play an important role in the initial viral infection, spread, but potentially also, clearance.”

In the citing paper
“TMPRSS2 is more widely expressed than ACE2, and cells with simultaneous expression were identified in the respiratory tree, the cornea, esophagus, ileum, colon, gallbladder, and common bile duct (Sungnak et al., 2020), yet there was no evidence for simultaneous expression in immune cells.”

In the citing paper
“It has recently been demonstrated through single cell RNA sequencing analysis (referred to herein as scSeq) that cells from the human upper airway — including nasal RE goblet and ciliated cells —express high levels of ACE2 and TMPRSS2, suggesting that these RE cell types may serve as a viral reservoir during CoV-2 infection (39, 40).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
