Grant Activity:
The Mental Health Impact of Childhood SARS-CoV-2
Purpose:
Children have key differences in ACE2, the receptor by which SARS-CoV-2 enters host cells, that may make them especially vulnerable to lasting brain damage. We show that a single ACE2 inhibition in juvenile rats leads to lasting anxiety- and depressive-like behaviour and associated brain changes. We hypothesize these effects will be worse the younger COVID-19 occurs. We will reveal the potential for COVID-19 to critically impact children, changing the approach to child health in this pandemic.
