SARS-CoV-2 infection causes periodontal fibrotic pathogenesis through deregulating mitochondrial beta-oxidation
Y. Gao, W. L. Kok, et al.
This captivating research reveals how SARS-CoV-2 viral components can induce fibrotic degeneration in human periodontal fibroblasts, leading to alarming effects such as increased apoptosis and senescence. The innovative work by Yan Gao, Wai Ling Kok, Vikram Sharma, Charlotte Sara Illsley, Sally Hanks, Christopher Tredwin, and Bing Hu explores the pivotal role of mitochondrial β-oxidation in this pathology.
