Genetic and non-genetic factors affecting the expression of COVID-19-relevant genes in the large airway epithelium

Genetic and non-genetic factors affecting the expression of COVID-19-relevant genes in the large airway epithelium

Abstract Background The large airway epithelial barrier provides one of the first lines of defense against respiratory viruses, including SARS-CoV-2 that causes COVID-19. Substantial inter-individual variability in individual disease courses is hypothesized to be partially mediated by the differenti...
