Regionally distinct progenitor cells in the lower airway give rise to neuroendocrine and multiciliated cells in the developing human lung

Abstract excerpt

Using scRNA-seq and microscopy, we describe a cell that is enriched in the lower airways of the developing human lung and identified by the unique coexpression of SCGB3A2/SFTPB/CFTR . To functionally interrogate these cells, we apply a single-cell barcode-based lineage tracing method, called CellTagging, to track the fate of SCGB3A2/SFTPB/CFTR cells during airway organoid differentiation in vitro. Lineage tracing...
