The Role of TGF-Beta in Asthmatic Epithelial Cell Susceptibility to RSV Infection |
Asthma patients seem to be more prone to viral infections, and NIEHS scientists believe that the cells that line these patients' airways, cause this result by overproducing TGF-beta1, a protein that promotes viral growth. |
