In mice and humans, ace2 expression is detected in 121 sustentacular cells, olfactory stem cells known as horizontal and globose basal cells in the 122 olfactory epithelium, and vascular cells (pericytes) in the olfactory bulb (Brann et al., 2020 The present study reports for the first time that zebrafish larvae exposed to SARS-CoV-2 appear 134 to mount innate immune responses that resemble cytokine responses of mild COVID-19 patients. There are copious amounts of immune cells in the teleost olfactory organ ( Intranasal delivery of SARS-CoV-2 S RBD induces inflammatory responses and 318 widespread loss of olfactory receptor expression in adult zebrafish olfactory organ 319 320 ./cache/cord-333703-1ku3jc9s.txt ./txt/cord-333703-1ku3jc9s.txt
