Paving the road for lung stem cell biology: bronchioalveolar stem cells and other putative distal lung stem cells
11 Aug 2007
Abstract excerpt
New discoveries in stem cell biology are making the biology of solid tissues increasingly complex. Important seminal studies demonstrating the presence of damage-resistant cell populations together with new isolation and characterization techniques suggest that stem cells exist in the adult lung. More detailed in vivo molecular and cellular characterization of bronchioalveolar stem cells (BASCs), other putative...
