Neuropilin-1 facilitates SARS-CoV-2 cell entry and provides a possible pathway into the central nervous system

L. Cantuti-Castelvetri, R. Ohja, L. Pedro, M. Djannatian, J. Franz, S. Kuivanen, K. Kallio, T. Kaya, M. Anastasina, T. Smura, L. Levanov, L. Szirovicza, A. Tobi, H. Kallio-Kokko, P. Osterlund, , M. Simons

This study shows that neuropilin-1 enhances SARS-CoV-2 infectivity and facilitates viral entry into the central nervous system via the olfactory pathway.

Neuropilin-1 is a host factor for SARS-CoV-2 infection

J. L. Daly, B. Simonetti, C. Anton Plagaro, M. Kavanagh Williamson, D. K. Shoemark, L. Simon-Gracia, K. Klein, M. Bauer, R. Hollandi, U. F. Greber, P. Horvath, R. B. Sessions, A. Helenius, J. A. Hiscox, T. Teesalu, , Y. Yamauchi

This study shows that SARS-CoV-2's S1 protein binds to NRP1 via the CendR motif, enhancing infection and identifying NRP1 as a therapeutic target.
