They found a significant number of genes were, in fact, changed by the virus, and some had significantly stronger immune responses to the virus than others.
Proud said scientists can use that knowledge to look for therapies, like vitamins or nasal sprays, which can boost the immune response of those genes even further, to wipe away cold symptoms.
Such a therapy would be a better, more natural way to fight the virus, since it would work with the body's own immune system, he added.
'It's a major step toward more targeted cold prevention and treatment strategies, while also serving as a valuable roadmap for the broader respiratory science community,' he said.
Proud says the findings will be especially important for children with asthma, adults with serious asthma, and those with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), often caused by smoking.
'These viruses can have devastating effects on people with asthma. So this is really meaningful to them.'
If scientists can find a way to better treat cold symptoms, Proud added, it would have a major impact on health systems.
He said asthma and COPD cost the Canadian health care system about $4 billion a year. In the U.S., it's about $40 billion a year
