There have been papers showing that NRP1 interacts with furin-cleaved spike protein. There have been some suggestions that this assists in entry for non-neural cells. There have never been papers (to my knowledge) that show that this plays a role in neuronal infection in humans. Like ACE2, NRP1 is associated with endothelial cells.

Again, this is a research paper, in mice. It has no direct relevance to any symptom you have personally experienced.
