SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein S1 Exposure Increases Susceptibility to Angiotensin II-Induced Hypertension in Rats by Promoting Central Neuroinflammation and Oxidative Stress
Description
The SARS-CoV-2 spike S1 subunit (S1) can cross the blood-brain barrier and elicit neuroinflammatory response independent of viral infection. Here we examined whether S1 influences blood pressure (BP) and sensitizes the hypertensive response to
