During several months of 2003, a newly identified illness termed severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) spread rapidly through the world1,2,3. A new coronavirus (SARS-CoV) was as SARS pathogen4,5,6,7, which triggered pneumonia and acute, often lethal, lung failure8. Moreover, among infected individuals influenza such Spanish flu9,10 emergence disease viruses11,12 have caused high lethality resulting from failure13. In cell lines, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) has been potential...
A novel infectious disease, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), was detected in Wuhan, China, December 2019.The disease (COVID-19) spread rapidly, reaching epidemic proportions and has been found 27 other countries.As of February 27, 2020, over 82,000 cases COVID-19 were reported, with > 2800 deaths.No specific therapeutics are available, current management includes travel restrictions, patient isolation, supportive medical care.There a number...
We have previously provided the first genetic evidence that angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is critical receptor for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), and ACE2 protects lung from injury, providing a molecular explanation failure death due to SARS-CoV infections. has now also been identified as key SARS-CoV-2 infections, it proposed inhibiting this interaction might be used in treating patients with COVID-19. However, not known whether human recombinant soluble...

Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) regulate fundamental cellular responses such as proliferation, apoptosis, cell motility, and adhesion. Viable gene-targeted mice lacking the p110 catalytic subunit of PI3Kγ were generated. We show that controls thymocyte survival activation mature T cells but has no role in development or function B cells. PI3Kγ-deficient neutrophils exhibited severe defects migration respiratory burst response to heterotrimeric GTP-binding protein (G protein)–coupled...
