Researchers create human airway stem cells from patients' cells
Advancing regenerative research for lung diseases, results could lead to new treatments for airways and lungs damaged by COVID-19, influenza, asthma and cystic fibrosis
27-Oct-2020 -
For the first time, researchers have successfully created airway basal stem cells in vitro from induced pluripotent stem cells by reprogramming blood cells taken from patients. Given that airway basal cells are defined as stem cells of the airways because they can regenerate the airway epithelium ...
