| DrugBank MoA: | The hybrid TREG and Th2 phenotype of these cells inhibits the inflammatory pathways of COVID-19 through modulation of cytokines and chemokines and cross-regulation of Th1 and Th17 populations. This therapy also has been seen to mediate protection on lung alveolar tissue. The immunomodulation that occurs is in a T-cell receptor independent manner. Currently, RAPA-501-ALLO is being investigated against COVID-19. |
