Does COVID-19 cause adverse pregnancy and neonatal outcomes?

Early in the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, pregnant women were thought to be at unusually high risk from the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) compared to the general population or non-pregnant women. However, later studies failed to agree on the extent and nature of the danger posed by the infection.

Preclinical study shows the therapeutic value of kinetin against SARS-CoV-2

Researchers investigated the ability of kinetin (N6-furfurylaminopurine, MB-905) to inhibit severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) proliferation in vitro.

17 Jan 2023

Researchers report that vectored expression of a high-affinity ACE2 microbody protein establishes a high degree of protection from SARS-CoV-2

Researchers evaluated the use of receptor decoys for SARS-CoV-2 based on soluble forms of ACE2 for immunological prophylaxis and management of COVID-19 through the use of AAV vectors.
