A new study details findings that provide an alternative way to study human lung regeneration.
A team of researchers from the Boston Medical Center (BMC; MA, USA) and Boston University (BU; MA, USA) have developed a method using pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to generate human alveolar epithelial type I cells (AT1s). The model developed in this study will help researchers comprehensively deepen their understanding of human lung regeneration.
