RSV-induced expanded ciliated cells contribute to bronchial wall thickening
13 Feb 2023
Abstract excerpt
Viral infection, particularly respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), causes inflammation in the bronchiolar airways (bronchial wall thickening, also known as bronchiolitis). This bronchial wall thickening is a common pathophysiological feature in RSV infection, but it causes more fatalities in infants than in children and adults.
