IL6 and type 2 diabetes mellitus: We conducted a sub-analysis of data from the AEC cultures from the adults with type 2 diabetes (n = 4) and observed that expression of IL-1B, IL-6, IFNB1, and IFNL2 were also not significantly different between SARS-CoV-2 infected AECs, SARS-CoV-2 infected AECs treated with captopril, or SARS-CoV-2 infected AECs treated with losartan (Figure 6).
