A new study, which is based on samples from deceased COVID patients, found no evidence of a pathway for the coronavirus to the brain – but did find that little-known sustentacular cells are the main target
It is now widely known that COVID-19 is associated with the transient or long-term loss of olfaction (the sense of smell) but the mechanisms remain obscure.
SARS-CoV-2 infects the sustentacular cells in the olfactory epithelium of COVID-19 patients, not nerve cells in the olfactory bulb.
An international team of researchers has, in a new study, claimed that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19, does not infect human brain cells, raising hopes that Covid-related damage to sense of smell may be more superficial than previously feared. The study, published in the journal Cell, showed that the virus infects sustentacular cells -- associated with structural
