In a recent paper published in Nature, Yang et al.[1] reported substantial cellular perturbations in the choroid plexus and cortex, notably an infiltration of peripheral T cells into the parenchyma and microglial activation and astrogliosis with distinct transcriptional profiles. These findings provide a complex view of the cellular and molecular processes underlying COVID-19-related neurological abnormalities.展开更多
