OX40 ligand newly expressed on bronchiolar progenitors mediates influenza infection and further exacerbates pneumonia

Abstract Influenza virus epidemics potentially cause pneumonia, which is responsible for much of the mortality due to the excessive immune responses. The role of costimulatory OX40–OX40 ligand (OX40L) interactions has been explored in the non‐infectious pathology of influenza pneumonia. Here, we des...
