Mutations of the TMPRSS2 gene are often involved in prostate cancer. Several viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, use the protease activity of the TMPRSS2 protein in the process of entering cells.[8]
As a type II transmembrane protease, TMPRSS2 consists of an intracellular N-terminal domain, a transmembrane domain, a stem region that extends extracellularly and a C-terminal domain that catalyzes its serine protease (SP) activity.[12] This serine protease activity is orchestrated by a catalytic triad containing the residues His296, Asp345, and Ser441.[12][10] This noted catalytic triad is typically responsible for the cleaving of basic amino acid residues (lysine or arginine residues)— consistent with what is observed in the S1/S2 cleavage site found in SARS-CoV-2.[12] A notable domain in the stem region that has been examined through mutational analysis is the low density lipoprotein receptor class A domain (LDLRA).[12] Experimental evidence suggests that this domain likely participates in enzymatic activity of the protein and has been examined alongside another motif in the stem region: the scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain (SRCR).[12] This domain may be implicated in the binding of extracellular molecules and other nearby cells.[13][14] Interestingly, SRCR may have a role in overall proteolytic activity of the protein, which could lead to implications on the overall virulence of SARS-CoV-2.[15][12][16]
TMPRSS2 protein's function in prostate carcinogenesis relies on overexpression of ETS transcription factors, such as ERG and ETV1, through gene fusion. TMPRSS2-ERG fusion gene is the most frequent, present in 40% - 80% of prostate cancers in humans. ERG overexpression contributes to development of androgen-independence in prostate cancer through disruption of androgen receptor signaling.[17]
Coronaviruses
Some coronaviruses, e.g. SARS-CoV-1, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2 (although less well by the omicron variant[18]), are activated by TMPRSS2 and can thus be inhibited by TMPRSS2 inhibitors.[19][20]SARS-CoV-2 uses the SARS-CoV receptor ACE2 for entry and the serine protease TMPRSS2 for S protein priming.[21]
Cleavage of the SARS-CoV-2S2spike protein required for viral entry into cells can be accomplished by proteases TMPRSS2 located on the cell membrane, or by cathepsins (primarily cathepsin L) in endolysosomes.[22]Hydroxychloroquine inhibits the action of cathepsin L in endolysosomes, but because cathepsin L cleavage is minor compared to TMPRSS2 cleavage, hydroxychloroquine does little to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 infection.[22]
The enzyme Adam17 has similar ACE2 cleavage activity as TMPRSS2, but by forming soluble ACE2, Adam17 may actually have the protective effect of blocking circulating SARS‑CoV‑2 virus particles.[23] By not releasing soluble ACE2, TMPRSS2 cleavage is more harmful.[23]
A TMPRSS2 inhibitor such as camostat approved for clinical use blocked entry and might constitute a treatment option.[20][22] Another experimental candidate as a TMPRSS2 inhibitor for potential use against both influenza and coronavirus infections in general, including those prior to the advent of COVID-19, is the over-the-counter (in most countries) mucolytic cough medicine bromhexine,[24] which is also being investigated as a possible treatment for COVID-19 itself as well.[25] The fact that TMPRSS2 has no known irreplaceable function makes it a promising target for preventing SARS-CoV-2 virus transmission.[9]
The fact that severe illness and death from Sars-Cov-2 is more common in males than females, and that TMPRSS2 is expressed several times more highly in prostateepithelium than any tissue, suggests a role for TMPRSS2 in the gender difference.[26][27]Prostate cancer patients receiving androgen deprivation therapy have a lower risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection than those not receiving that therapy.[26][27]
Inhibitors
Camostat is an inhibitor of the serine protease activity of TMPRSS2. It is used to treat pancreatitis and reflux esophagitis.[28] It was found not to be effective against COVID-19.[29] A novel inhibitor of TMPRSS2 (N-0385) has been found to be effective against SARS-CoV-2 infection in cell and animal models.[30][31]

Former railway line in Scotland The Callander and Oban Railway company was established with the intention of linking the sea port of Oban to the railway network. This involved a long line from Callander through wild and thinly populated terrain, and shortage of money meant that the line was opened in stages from 1866 to 1880. The line improved the economy of Oban, especially for the fishing trade and for tourism, but the winter traffic was limited. The company built a branch to Ballachulish, ...
