Embryonic and Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for Lung Regeneration
1 Mar 2015
Abstract excerpt
The discovery of embryonic and induced pluripotent stem cells (ESCs and iPSCs) has ushered in an exciting new era of regenerative medicine. Human pluripotent stem cells can be "directed" in vitro toward lung epithelium by applying specific stepwise combinations of growth factors that recapitulate the molecular mechanisms of respiratory development in animal models. In a relatively short time, there has been...
