General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2) and the transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2) seem to be positively related to IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha production in chronic rhinosinusitis patient. ACE2 and TMPRSS2 are co-expressed in the ciliated epithelium of their paranasal mucosa, implicating the paranasal epithelium as a portal for initial infection and transmission Homo sapiens
