The gene ATP6vd02 is induced in response to IL-6 (Chowdhury et al., 2020), and TGF-beta is known to upregulate IL-6 (Woods et al., 2015; Yang et al., 2017), which aids in tissue repair and reduced influenza induced immunopathology (Furuya et al., 2015). The gene discussed is IL6; the disease is influenza.
