Study: inhalation of sugar Treatment of lung diseases

A recent scientific study, this inhalation of sugar may help in the treatment of lung diseases, according to the British newspaper "Independent".
Scientists have discovered this finding after examining the effect of glucose in immune system cells of the respiratory tract, the paper said.
Scientists have discovered that blocking sugar-sensitive "receptor" proteins can inhibit inflammation, which plays a key role in allergies, asthma, and so on.
Researchers say that inhaling sugar can stimulate the immune system in the lungs to fight off infections or diseases.
Andrew McDonnell, a senior researcher at the University of Manchester, said that a short-term inhaled sugar therapy might be effective someday.
The study, which was conducted on mice, was studied in specialized white blood cells called "macrophages", cells that act as "clean brooms" of the immune system, cleansing and "submerging" pests and diseases. debris of the immune system.
The University of Manchester team discovered that macrophages in the lungs required an appropriate level of glucose or "fuel" to function properly and that excessive stimulation of sugar led to inflammation often associated with chronic conditions such as asthma.
Research also suggests that blocking sugar receptors on lung function can help stop many lung diseases.
On the other hand, stimulation of cells containing more sugar can help the immune system fight against bronchitis responsible for coughs and pneumonia.
