Hypoxia Affects SARS-CoV-2 Proteins in Fetal Cells by vpsgwc6v68 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This study investigates the expression of SARS-CoV-2 cell entry proteins, ACE2, TMPRSS2, and furin, in human fetal brain endothelial cells and how hypoxia affects their levels during early and mid-pregnancy. Results indicate that hypoxia modifies the expression of these proteins in a gestational age- and time-of-exposure-dependent manner, potentially increasing the vulnerability of the developing blood-brain barrier to SARS-CoV-2 infection. The findings suggest that altered protein expression due to materna
