In Vitro study showing that ACE2 is highly localized within the motile cilia of airway epithelial cells, potentially representing an initial site of SARS-CoV-2 entry. Authors demonstrate that ACE inhibitors (ACEI) and angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) do not increase ciliary ACE2 expression, indicating that these medications do not enhance susceptibility to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization techniques revealed ACE2 presence in the cilia across the nasal cavity, trachea, and bronchus, while ACE2 was absent in secretory goblet cells. Patient demographics, including age, sex, and smoking status, did not affect ciliary ACE2 expression.

In Vitro studies are an important part of preclinical research, however results may be very different in vivo.
