Endogenous gene editing of alveolar organoids reveals that expression of pathogenic variant SFTPC-I73T disrupts endosomal function, epithelial polarity and wound healing

Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a fatal lung disease of progressive lung parenchymal scarring caused by the aberrant response of an alveolar epithelium repeatedly exposed to injury. Understanding epithelial dysfunction has been hampered by the lack of physiological alveolar type 2 (AT2) cell models and defined disease triggers. Monogenic forms of familial pulmonary fibrosis (FPF) caused by to...
