Mitoquinone mesylate targets SARS-CoV-2 infection in preclinical models

Mitoquinone mesylate shows antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects against SARS-CoV-2 in preclinical models.

A molecular atlas of proximal airway identifies subsets of known airway cell types revealing details of the unique molecular pathogenesis of Cystic Fibrosis

The paper uses single-cell transcriptomics to analyze proximal airway epithelium in CF and healthy donors, identifying molecular changes linked to CF pathogenesis.

Direct exposure to SARS-CoV-2 and cigarette smoke increases infection severity and alters the stemcell-derived airway repair response

This study shows that cigarette smoke exposure increases SARS-CoV-2 infection severity in airway cultures by reducing interferon response and ABSC proliferation.
