Human Surfactant Protein D Facilitates SARS-CoV-2 Pseudotype Binding and Entry in DC-SIGN Expressing Cells, and Downregulates Spike protein Induced Inflammation

N. Beirag, C. Kumar, T. Madan, M. H. Shamji, R. Bulla, D. Mitchell, V. Murugaiah, M. Mayora Neto, N. J. Temperton, S. Idicula-Thomas, P. M. Varghese, U. Kishore

This study shows that rfhSP-D enhances SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein binding to DC-SIGN and increases viral uptake in DC-SIGN-expressing cells while reducing inflammation.
