Delayed angiopoietin‐2 blockade reduces influenza‐induced lung injury and improves survival in mice
Angiopoietin‐2 (Ang‐2) is a key prognostic marker and potential mediator of Acute respiratory distress syndrome, yet it is unknown whether inhibiting Ang‐2 signaling at its receptor Tie‐2 can reduce viral lung injury after it begins. Here we demonstrate that delayed antagonism of Ang‐2 in mice with severe influenza pneumonia improves survival, gas ...
