Successful establishment of primary small airway cell cultures in human lung transplantation

Successful establishment of primary small airway cell cultures in human lung transplantation

Background: The study of small airway diseases such as post-transplant bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is hampered by the difficulty in assessing peripheral airway function either physiologically or directly. Our aims were to develop robust methods for sampling small airway epithelial cells...
