Soluble Neuropilin-1 Response to Hypoglycemia in Type 2 Diabetes: Increased Risk or Protection in SARS-CoV-2 Infection?
Published 2021“…</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p dir="ltr">Hypoglycemia potentiated both plasma sNRP1 level elevation and its ligands VEGF and SEMA3A, likely through an ADAM9-mediated mechanism that was not associated with RAS overactivity or ACEi therapy; however, whether this is protective or promotes increased risk for SARS-CoV-2 infection in T2D is unclear.…”

A BRET-based Mpro biosensor containing a nanobody and tandem cleavage sites shows an increased cleavage rate
Published 2025“…Further, mutational analysis revealed a requirement for both cleavage sites to be intact for increased cleavage rate. Importantly, the inclusion of an Mpro-binding, but non-inhibiting, NB2E3 nanobody at the N-terminal further increased the cleavage rate of the 2× cleavage sequence-containing Mpro biosensor. …”
