Thymidine Phosphorylase Drives SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein-Induced Lung Tumorigenesis

Cayleigh Wallace, Alex Gileles‐Hillel, Amelia Cox, David Gozal, Wei Li, Hong Yue

This study shows that SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein promotes lung tumorigenesis via TYMP-dependent mechanisms, increasing lung cancer risk in COVID-19 survivors, especially smokers.
