General Comments
TMPRSS2 is expressed on the epithelial cells of human lungs, and it is involved in the activation of viral glycoproteins/viral entry across a range of viruses, including influenza A virus, metapneumovirus, and some coronaviruses (e.g. SARS-CoV [1]). Emerging data suggest that the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 (formerly referred to as 2019-nCoV) uses the same entry receptor (ACE2) that is used by SARS-CoV. Like SARS-CoV, SARS-CoV-2 exploits host TMPRSS2 for spike protein priming [2]. In this study in vitro SARS-CoV-2 entry was partially blocked by the protease inhibitor camostat (which has inhibitory action against TMPRSS2 [3]).
