Team tracks integrin's role in lung function.
In a mouse model, deleting the gene for beta-1 integrin from the epithelial cells lining the alveoli of the adult lung, where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place, results in accelerated inflammation and severe

Reacting to the Virus
If you have a pre-existing lung condition (COPD,
emphysema
, lung cancer) or are on immunosuppressants, now is a great time to talk to your PCP or specialist about what they would like you to do if you get sick. They might have plans to get you admitted and bypass the ER entirely.

I also have
emphysema
so at times I have trouble breathing. Am I the only one that is almost to tired to shower or bathe? It's a struggle to keep up. I tried a medication for depression and it seemed to make it worse.
