Generation of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2/Transmembrane Protease Serine 2-Double-Positive Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Spheroids for Anti-Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Drug Evaluation

ABSTRACT We newly generated two human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived spheroid lines, termed Spheroids_4MACE2-TMPRSS2 and Spheroids_15M63ACE2-TMPRSS2, both of which express angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and transmembrane protease serine 2 (TMPRSS2), which are critical for seve...
