COV: “this paper focuses on the potential role of BPA in promoting comorbidities associated with severe COVID-19, as well as on potential BPA-induced effects on key SARS-CoV-2 infection mediators, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2).....BPA exposure may impact on the local expression of these SARS-CoV-2 infection mediators. This evidence concerns the gene TMPRSS2 and COVID-19.
