what's the difference between "look to something as ' and "look upon something as"
In a piece of news, it is said that: The new study may encourage people to look to viruses as a factor contributing to obesity.
I was told that look to can not be replaced by look upon, which I assume means "regard something as something". I don't know the difference between these two expressions. Could you explain it to me? Thanks.
