Deskripsi

To gain insights into the early immune dynamics of transcriptional changes during SARS-CoV-2 infection, Singh et al. provide longitudinal scRNA-Seq of the broncho-alveolar compartment of SARS-CoV-2 infected rhesus macaques. They observe an accumulation of a distinct macrophage population that possesses an interferon-driven innate anti-viral gene signature early during infection that correlates with viral clearance.
