Patient-specific iPSCs carrying an <i>SFTPC</i> mutation reveal the intrinsic alveolar epithelial dysfunction at the inception of interstitial lung disease
2020-11-14
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> The incompletely understood pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis (PF) and lack of reliable preclinical disease models have limited development of effective therapies. An emerging literature now implicates alveolar epithelial type 2 cell (AEC2) dysfunction as an initiating pathogenic event in the onset of a variety of PF syndromes, including adult idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and childhood in...
