Isolation of stem/progenitor cells from normal lung tissue of adult humans

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to isolate and characterize stem/progenitor cells, starting from normal airway epithelia, obtained from human adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Cultures of multicellular spheroids were obtained from human lung tissue specimens after mechanical and enzymatic digestion. Tissue-specific markers were detected on their cells by immunohistochemical and immunofluorescent techniques....
