Vagal α7nAChR signaling regulates α7nAChR+Sca1+ cells during lung injury repair

Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2020
Background The distal airways of the lung and bone marrow are innervated by the vagus nerve. Vagal α7nAChR signaling plays a key role in regulating lung infection and inflammation; however, whether this pathway regulates α7nAChR+Sca1+ cells during lung ...

The pulmonary-proteoliposome as a new therapeutic approach for Coronaviruses [PDF]

, 2020
We are proposing the use of pulmonary-proteoliposome as a new therapeutic approach for Coronaviruses. The designed strategy represents a potential treatment to reduce the overall viral load in the lungs and to help the immune system to successfully stave
