According to research results published in the professional journal "Nature Medicine" in experiments on mice, scientists have shown that respiratory virus infection sincitik (Respiratory syncytial virus - RSV) destroys the ability of immune cells to fight the inflammation in the airways, broadcasts BBC.
Their discovery may help find a method to prevent asthma, disease in which, in response to particles from the air that irritate you, it comes to narrowing of the airways, creating strained sputum and inflammatory changes.
Previous research has shown the link between frequent inflammation of the lungs caused by RSV and the development of asthma in later life as a Swedish research has shown that 39 percent of children who are hospitalized due to RSV infection develop asthma by age 18 compared to nine percent of other children who have not been infected with the virus.
But these researches have failed to reveal the mechanism of action of the virus.
Scientists from the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh have shown in mice that the virus impairs the ability of certain part of the immune system called T regulatory cells to calm inflammation.
To people with asthma, which are normally found in air particles can cause
