(D) Assessment of DBP’s effect on ACE2 enzymatic activity within a concentration range of 12.5–200 μM. Relative Fluorescence units were reported as mean ± SD. Significant differences were observed in the MLN-4760 group compared to the Neg group (*** P < 0.001), while no statistically significant differences (ns) were detected in the other experimental groups. (E) Molecular docking analysis showing that DBP stably binds at the RBD (Cyan). (F) Structural representation of the ACE2-RBD interface (Red) before DBP binding, showing the formation of 18 hydrogen bonds (Yellow) and one salt bridge (Orange).

    Figure Lengend Snippet: SARS-CoV-2 replication in breast cancer cell lines. Western blot and densitometric analysis of ( a ) ACE2 and ( b ) NRP1 protein expression in the MCF7, MDA-MB-231 and HCC1937 breast cancer cell lines. ( c ) ACE2 and NRP1 were silenced by siRNAs in the MCF7, MDA-MB-231 and HCC1937 breast cancer cell lines, which were subsequently infected with SARS-CoV-2 lineage B1. Viral RNA, expressed as copies/100 ng RNA, was quantified in the cytoplasm 6 h p.i. by real-time PCR with primers targeting the viral N1 gene. The data are presented as the means ± SEMs and are representative of one of three independent experiments with similar results. * p < 0.05 by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparison test with a single pooled variance. ( d ) MCF7, MDA-MB-231 and HCC1937 breast cancer cells were infected with SARS-CoV-2, and viral RNA was quantified at different time points in the cytoplasm and in the supernatants by real-time PCR. The viral load is expressed as copies/100 ng RNA or copies/mL for the cellular or supernatant RNA, respectively. The data are presented as the means ± SEMs and are representative of one of three independent experiments with similar results. *** p < 0.001 according to two-way ANOVA with multiple comparisons; refers to the comparison between MCF7 cells and MDA-MB-231 cells and the comparison between MCF7 cells and HCC1937 cells.

    Fluvastatin and simvastatin affect the sorting of ACE2, DPPIV, and SI to the brush border membrane of Caco-2 cells. (A) Control and treated Caco-2 cells were homogenized 48 h post-treatment. The homogenates were then fractionated into H, P1, P2, and S using the divalent cation (CaCl 2 ) method. Equal amounts of proteins from each fraction were analyzed by immunoblotting with anti-ACE2 antibodies.
