On the one hand, they can boost the metabolism of T cells by inducing central regulators of energy metabolism. On the other hand, they can inhibit specific enzymes that regulate the accessibility to the genetic material and thus the gene expression in the T cells. In doing so, they induce epigenetic changes.

However, for virologists like Lori Frappier, PhD, professor in the department of molecular genetics at the University of Toronto, the outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 was less of a surprise and more of an inevitability. She told Xtalks that, “Experts have always known that this kind of pandemic was a possibility, especially with coronaviruses.
