Enhancing human ACE2 expression in mouse models to improve COVID‐19 research
Mice are one of the most common biological models for laboratory use. However, wild‐type mice are not susceptible to COVID‐19 infection due to the low affinity of mouse ACE2, the entry protein for SARS‐CoV‐2. Although mice with human ACE2 (hACE2) driven by Ace2 promoter reflect its tissue specificit...
