The SARS-CoV-2 virus, responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily targets the respiratory tract, but its ability to infect cells of the nervous system has also been largely reported. Indeed, the expression of the receptor of this virus, the Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2), by neuronal and glial cells makes the brain susceptible to SARS-CoV-2. Moreover, neurological manifestations are...

The clinical manifestations of SARS-CoV-2 infection vary from one individual to the next, and much remains unknown about the mechanisms underpinning this variability. Since the nasal mucosa is one of the first entry points of the virus, scientists from the Institut Pasteur and Inserm, in collaboration with Cochin AP-HP Hospital, analyzed in parallel the immune responses in the nasal mucosa and in...
