Data from multiple hACE2 transgenic mouse models has revealed that SARS-CoV detection in the brain is significantly delayed compared to that within the lung, consistent with the initial establishment of infection within the respiratory system before dissemination to the CNS [21À23]. In addition, the detection of SARS-CoV in CSF of patients with neurological manifestation has also provided direct evidence for the neuroinvasion and neurovirulence of hCoVs. However, the role of the virus in the process of the disease in acute phase as well as in the long term still remains elusive.
