Long COVID inflicts deep scars on the lungs, but targeting specific immune cells could reverse damage − new research in mice

The long-term effects of respiratory viral infections such as COVID-19 are a major public health burden. Some estimates suggest over 65 million people around the world suffer from long COVID-19.  Efforts to better understand this condition, however, have been hampered by its ability to affect multiple organ systems, such as those involving the lungs, brain and heart. This is further complicated by the lack of animal models that can sufficiently …

Long COVID inflicts deep scars on the lungs, but targeting specific immune cells could reverse damage − new research in mice - Tech and Science Post

Respiratory viral infections like COVID-19 can lead to long-term effects known as long COVID-19, affecting over 65 million people worldwide. Understanding this condition is challenging due to its impact on multiple organ systems and the lack of suitable animal models for research. A new mouse model developed by researchers at the University of Virginia has shed light on long COVID-19, demonstrating that blocking specific overactive immune cells …
