The fact that NRP1 assists SARS2 infection has been known for over a year. I still don’t get your point.
This is important because it can explain the neurological symptoms of Covid and possible pathway for treatment of those neurological symptoms. To anyone, like me, who had psychosis at the beginning of their Covid infection, or people who are suffering from long Covid, this is very important.
- timr 4y agoThere have been papers showing that NRP1 interacts with furin-cleaved spike protein. There have been some suggestions that this assists in entry for non-neural cells. There have never been papers (to my knowledge) that show that this plays a role in neuronal infection in humans. Like ACE2, NRP1 is associated with endothelial cells. Again, this is a research paper, in mice. It has no direct relevance to any symptom you have personally experienced.
