It is an interesting study in mice but so oddly specific that I wonder why it's on HN? But saving lungs is important because alveolar regeneration is currently an impossible technological fantasy and most lung transplant patients die after a few years from organ rejection. All those transplant stories you heard in 2020 from the alpha/beta forms of covid destroying lungs are either gone now or on their way (or looking at another transplant) There's still no cure for ARDS/COPD which is a slow death sentence but during my post-covid research when I thought I had permanent severe lung damage I found this one Professor "Robert Stockley" at University Hospital Birmingham who has been testing various things since the 1990s like Vitamin A derivatives (Retinoids) to reverse lung damage. He's found things that work in animals but not humans. https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/birmingham-in-action/news/donor-robert-stockley-is-funding-phd-students-copd-research.aspx https://www.birmingham.ac.uk/birmingham-in-action/news/donor... adding: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9188766/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9188766/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9188766/table/tbl2/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9188766/table/t...
