Shortness of breath and control of the immune system
Researchers at the National Cancer Research Institute have claimed that the cancer drug can reduce the severity of coron infection and help treat corona. According to the researchers, blood cancer medication can reduce the shortness of breath of infected patients. Through this, the immune system of patients can also be controlled. Being more active in the immune system, there is a possibility of serious infection.
Medication blocks protein
According to this research published in the journal Science Immunology, the cancer drug 'acalbrutinib' corona blocks the BTK protein, ie, bruton tyrosine kinase, in patients. This protein plays an important role in the immune system. Many times when the immune system becomes more active, it starts causing inflammation instead of protecting the body from infection.
Cytokinine storm
This happens because of cytokinin proteins in the immune system. This process is also medically called cytokinin storm. In this process, bruton tyrosine kinase protein also plays a role. Therefore this protein can be blocked in corona patients through cancer drugs
