Study finds biomarker pattern in children with COVID 19-linked multisystem inflammatory syndrome

Children with multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C) — a rare condition linked with the virus that causes COVID-19 — have biochemical indicators of cell injury and cell death that are distinct from other children with COVID-19, according to a study funded by the National Institutes of Health.

A rapid and affordable in vitro model to test SARS-CoV-2 susceptibility in animal species

Research investigates the susceptibility of seven bat species to SARS-CoV-2 by expressing their ACE2 receptor in a non-permissive avian cell line. The study found that all seven bat species were susceptible to SARS-CoV-2, but the level of virus replication differed between bat species and virus variants.
