According to the study, the expression of RIG-I, a biological molecule that can detect RNA viruses, suppresses the replication of the novel coronavirus in the lung cells. These findings may help not only in the prediction of outcomes in COVID-19 patients but also help bolster immune response in individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
