Abstract

Manipulation of the apico-basal Polarity pathways during infection is a strategy routinely used by numerous viruses. This leads to the mislocalization or degradation of the polarity proteins and participate to the disruption of the epithelial integrity. Nothing is known so far concerning SARS-CoV2 and polarity. In order to better understand SARS-CoV2 physiopathology, this study focuses on the expression pattern of apico-basal polarity proteins during SARS-CoV2 infection.
