SARS-CoV-2 Infection Dysregulates Cilia and Basal Cell Homeostasis in the Respiratory Epithelium of Hamsters
SARS-CoV-2 Infection Dysregulates Cilia and Basal Cell Homeostasis in the Respiratory Epithelium of Hamsters

Hamster study:

“severe" loss of cilia following a COVID infection. Cilia are small, hair-like structures that are an important part of the mucosal system.
