Conditional reprogramming of pediatric airway epithelial cells: A new human model to investigate early‐life respiratory disorders

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Airway epithelial cells (AEC) are quite difficult to access in newborns and infants. It is critically important to develop robust life-extended models to conduct translational studies in this age group. We propose the use of a recently described cell culture technology (conditionally reprogrammed cells-CRC) to generate continuous primary cell cultures from nasal and bronchial AEC of young children....
