Angiotensin Peptides Enhance SARS-CoV-2 Spike Binding
2026-09-23
A 2025 study found that Angiotensin II and selected naturally occurring derivatives increase biochemical binding between the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and host receptors, with the strongest effects associated with specific peptide truncations and tyrosine modifications. The results identify angiotensin-peptide structure as a potential determinant of receptor engagement, while remaining an early biochemical observation rather than clinical evidence of altered viral infection.
