Researchers Discover Why Lungs Are Severely Affected by Virus-Related Attacks

A new study conducted by researchers from Sweden’s Karolinska Institutet describes how macrophages, which are different kinds of immune cells, can develop in the lungs and cause serious lung diseases. Macrophages have many functions in the body, including protecting the lungs from attacks by bacteria and viruses. The lungs’ structure exposes them to both these pathogens through blood and air. However, under specific conditions, the macrophages can also cause severe lung disease such as the coronavirus and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). However, research on human lung macrophages development is scanty. Macrophages develop from a type of white blood cell…
