Extended Data Fig. 4: Expression of known SARS-CoV-2 entry receptors and facilitators in liver autopsy samples.

From: Molecular consequences of SARS-CoV-2 liver tropism

Extended Data Fig. 4

a, Gene expression of ACE2 in different GTEX tissues shows log2 transcript per million (TPM) expression levels in the liver after intestine, kidney and lung. ACE2 expression levels in the liver samples of COVID-19 patients and controls are comparable with liver and lung expression in GTEX data set. b, Gene expression of CTSL and c, TMPRSS2 and d, RAB7A in different GTEX tissues shows log2 TPM expression levels in the liver after intestine, kidney and lung. Box plots showing boxes from the 25th to the 75th percentile with the median shown as a line in the middle and whiskers indicating 1.5 times the interquartile range.
