ACE2 Receptor and Its Isoform Short-ACE2 Are Expressed on Human Spermatozoa

ACE2 Receptor and Its Isoform Short-ACE2 Are Expressed on Human Spermatozoa

Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is a protein widely expressed in numerous cell types, with different biological roles mainly related to the renin-angiotensin system. Recently, ACE2 has been in the spotlight due to its involvement in the SARS-CoV-2 entry into cells. There are no data available...
