Identification of a self-renewing muscle satellite cell state by single-cell chromatin accessibility profiling

A. E. Okafor, X. Lin, C. Situ, X. Wei, X. Wei, Z. Wu, Y. Diao

The paper identifies a self-renewing muscle satellite cell state using single-cell chromatin accessibility profiling and shows TGFBR3 as a marker for these cells.

BSG/CD147 and ACE2 receptors facilitate SARS-CoV-2 infection of human iPS cell-derived kidney podocytes

T. D. Kalejaiye, R. Bhattacharya, M. A. Burt, T. Travieso, A. E. Okafor, X. Mou, M. Blasi, S. Musah

This study shows SARS-CoV-2 can infect kidney podocytes via ACE2 and BSG/CD147 receptors, causing cell death and foot process retraction, and suggests a stem cell model for drug screening.
