SARS-CoV-2 Entry Receptor ACE2 Is Expressed on Very Small CD45− Precursors of Hematopoietic and Endothelial Cells and in Response to Virus Spike Protein Activates the Nlrp3 Inflammasome

Investigators demonstrated for the first time that ACE2 and the entry-facilitating transmembrane protease TMPRSS2 were expressed on very small CD133+CD34+Lin−CD45− cells in human umbilical cord blood, which could be specified into functional hematopoietic stem cells and endothelial progenitor cells.

hUC-MSCs Ameliorated CUMS-Induced Depression by Modulating Complement C3 Signaling-Mediated Microglial Polarization during Astrocyte-Microglia Crosstalk

Human umbilical cord (hUC)-MSCs were administered into chronic unpredictable mild stress model mice through the tail vein once a week for four weeks. After the administration of hUC-MSCs, the depression-like and anxiety-like phenotypes, neuronal histopathology, synaptic-related protein expression and inflammatory index of the mice were assessed.
