Exploring Spike-Dependent and ACE2-Independent Viral Entry into Salivary Epithelial Cells in the Absence of ACE2

Caitlynn M. L. Barrows, Simon W. Young, Mary C. Farach‐Carson

This study investigates SARS-CoV-2 entry into salivary epithelial cells, finding no ACE2 expression and no spike protein binding, suggesting these cells are not major targets for infection via ACE2.

mTORC1 and mTORC2 regulate distinct aspects of glutamatergic synaptic transmission.

Matthew P. McCabe, Erin R. Cullen, Caitlynn M. L. Barrows…·Matthew C. Weston

This study investigates the distinct roles of mTORC1 and mTORC2 in glutamatergic synaptic transmission by genetically inactivating each complex in mouse neurons, revealing their specific effects on presynaptic and postsynaptic functions.
