SARS-CoV-2 Spike triggers barrier dysfunction and vascular leak via integrins and TGF-β signaling

Severe COVID-19 is associated with epithelial and endothelial barrier dysfunction, however, the molecular pathways resulting in endothelial barrier dysfunction and vascular leakage are only sparsely understood. Here, Biering et al. show that SARS-CoV-2 spike protein is sufficient to induce barrier d...
