Mannose-modified tobacco mosaic virus-mediated macrophage regulation inhibits pulmonary fibrosis progression.
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic disease, causing irreversible lung scarring and respiratory failure. CD206+ M2 macrophages play a key role in its progression. In this study, we utilize the pro-inflammatory properties of plant viruses to develop a mannose-modified tobacco mosaic virus nanoparticle (TMV-...
