Evidence for multiple roles for grainyhead-like 2 in the establishment and maintenance of human mucociliary airway epithelium
20 May 2013
Abstract excerpt
Most of the airways of the human lung are lined by an epithelium made up of ciliated and secretory luminal cells and undifferentiated basal progenitor cells. The integrity of this epithelium and its ability to act as a selective barrier are critical for normal lung function.
