Disclosed are methods for detecting if a biological sample (e.g., saliva, serum, blood, plasma) contains IgA antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 S glycoproteins. The method includes contacting a biological sample with a SARS-CoV-2 S glycoprotein-coated surface, contacting the surface with a secondary antibody, and detecting the secondary antibody, where if a secondary antibody is detected, the sample contains IgA antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 S glycoprotein. Assay substrates and kits for performing such methods are also disclosed.

Disclosed is a CRISPR/Cas based system for screening an RNA aptamer against a target protein, comprising: (i) a guide RNA comprising a recognition sequence and a nucleic acid aptamer random library having a predetermined length; (ii) a target sequence complementary to the recognition sequence of the guide RNA; (iii) a selection marker located downstream of the target sequence and comprising a basal promoter and a selection marker gene; (iv) a fusion protein comprising the target protein and a transcriptional activation module, wherein a binding of the target protein to an RNA aptamer of the nucleic acid aptamer random library results in recruitment of the transcriptional activation module to the selection marker; (v) a dCas protein specifically recognizing the target sequence under the guidance of the guide RNA; and (vi) a screening cell. Also disclosed is a method for screening an RNA aptamer against a target protein using the system provided herein and RNA aptamers against S1 protein of SARS-CoV-2 virus and applications thereof.

0000 Safe, effective, disease-modifying treatments—and especially, optimized treatments—for Alzheimer's and many other CNS, cardiovascular, metabolic and other disorders remain elusive. This is in part due to many CNS, cardiovascular, metabolic. and other disorders having underlying components on both sides of the blood-brain barrier—e.g., having CNS components as well as cardiovascular and/or metabolic and/or other non-CNS components. Respective examples in CNS, cardiovascular, metabolic and other domains include Alzheimer's disease, heart failure, diabetes and COVID-19. This is in and of itself a challenge, as most drugs (~98% of small molecules; a greater portion of larger molecules such as antibodies and peptides) do not cross the blood brain barrier appreciably, and even when they do, the chances of them having a partition coefficient that optimizes dosing in compartments on both sides of the blood brain barrier is vanishingly low. This invention addresses that challenge with a novel, bicameral, CNS+ (i.e., two-compartment, where one compartment is on the neuronal/glial side of the blood-brain barrier and one compartment is not) approach. This bicameral, CNS+ approach involves parallel 1) Intranasal, direct-to-brain delivery of drugs addressing the CNS component of a CNS, cardiovascular or metabolic disorder 2) Delivery (oral, injection or otherwise) of a cardiovascular &/or metabolic &/or other agent to the central compartment (i.e., blood and well-perfused org

The invention discloses a construction method of a novel coronavirus-like particle induced cell membrane fusion model, and belongs to the technical field of biology, and the method comprises the following steps: constructing virus-like particles containing SARS-CoV-2 spike protein genes and RNA packaging sequence PS9, taking HEK-293T cells as packaging cells, co-expressing structural proteins M, E, N and S, and realizing VLPs assembly without replication ability. And then, infecting immortalized II-type alveolar epithelial cells by using the VLPs, and inducing S protein expression and mediating cell-cell membrane fusion under the condition of not needing a BSL-3 laboratory. The formation of fused giant cells can be visually observed through ZO-1 protein immunofluorescence staining, and the model is stable, high in biological safety and repeatable in vitro. The method overcomes the problems of safety risk of live virus infection and insufficient authenticity of a transient transfection model, can be used for research of an SARS-CoV-2 virus membrane fusion mechanism, and has a good application prospect.
