Self-Organizing, Symmetry Breaking, Isogenic Human Lung Buds on Microchips Identify Alveolar Stem Cells as Novel Targets of SARS-CoV-2
2021-01-26
Abstract excerpt
Although lung disease is the primary clinical outcome in COVID-19 patients, how SARS-CoV-2 induces lung pathology remains elusive. Here we describe a high-throughput platform to generate self-organizing, nearly identical, and genetically-matched human lung buds derived from hESCs cultured on micropatterned substrates. Synthetic lung buds resemble human fetal lungs and display proximo-distal patterning of alveolar...
