Therapeutic impact of Human serum albumin-thioredoxin fusion protein on influenza virus-induced lung injury mice

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are the primary pathogenic molecules produced in viral lung infections. We previously reported on the use of a recombinant human serum albumin (HSA)-thioredoxin 1 (Trx) fusion protein (HSA-Trx) for extending the half-life Trx, an endogenous protein with antioxidant prop...
