The expression of other lung injury markers like mucin (muc-1: marker of respiratory infections), surfactant protein-D (sftp-D: acute lung injury marker), advanced glycation end product (AGER: pro-inflammatory pattern recognition receptor), and plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1: a key factor for lung fibrosis) was upregulated at 4 dpi (Figure 1G; Chatterjee et al., 2020; Crouch, 2000; Oczypok et al., 2017; Prabhakaran et al., 2003). This evidence concerns the gene MUC1 and respiratory tract infectious disorder.
