Modeling viral and bacterial infections in human lung organotypic systems reveals strain specific host responses
2025-04-01
Abstract excerpt
In this study, we developed novel lung organoid-on-chip models that elucidate differential human tissue response to various strains of respiratory pathogens: Streptococcus pneumoniae and SARS-CoV-2. We show that human fetal-derived distal lung epithelial cells are readily expandable in 3D as organoids, thereby providing a highly sustainable source of lung progenitor cells. These 3D organoid progenitors can then b...
