Pericyte‐like cells undergo transcriptional reprogramming and distinct functional adaptations in acute lung injury
12 Mar 2021
Abstract excerpt
We previously reported on the role of pericyte-like cells as functional sentinel immune cells in lung injury. However, much about the biological role of pericytes in lung injury remains unknown. Lung pericyte-like cells are well-positioned to sense disruption to the epithelial barrier and coordinate local inflammatory responses due to their anatomic niche within the alveoli. In this report, we characterized...
