Type 2 alveolar cells are stem cells in adult lung.
Gas exchange in the lung occurs within alveoli, air-filled sacs composed of type 2 and type 1 epithelial cells (AEC2s and AEC1s), capillaries, and various resident mesenchymal cells. Here, we use a combination of in vivo clonal lineage analysis, different injury/repair systems, and in vitro culture of purified cell populations to obtain new information about the contribution of AEC2s to alveola...
متن کاملIsolation of Murine Alveolar Type II Epithelial Cells.
We have optimized a protocol for isolation of alveolar type II epithelial cells from mouse lung. Lung cell suspensions are prepared by intratracheal instillation of dispase and agarose followed by mechanical disaggregation of the lungs. Alveolar type II epithelial cells are purified from these lung cell suspensions through magnetic-based negative selection using a Biotin-antibody, Streptavidin-...
متن کاملAlveolar type II and Clara cells: isolation and xenobiotic metabolism.
This paper describes one isolation procedure for two pulmonary cell types and discusses how these cells are being used for toxicological studies. Alveolar Type II cells and Clara cells have been isolated from rabbits and rats and separated into highly enriched fractions. The lungs were digested with protease, and the pulmonary cell digests were separated into discrete fractions on the basis of ...
متن کاملThe Effects of Amiodarone of Rabbit Lung Alveolar Cells
Purpose: The effects of Amiodarone on lung tissue and morphologic changes of alveolar cells. Materials and Methods: in this study, we used 21 mature male rabbits and they were divided into control and two experimental groups. Daily 80 mg/kg amiodarone was injected intra peritoneally to the experimental animals for one or two weeks. The control group received normal saline the same dose as amio...
متن کاملA pure population of lung alveolar epithelial type II cells derived from human embryonic stem cells.
Alveolar epithelial type II (ATII) cells are small, cuboidal cells that constitute approximately 60% of the pulmonary alveolar epithelium. These cells are crucial for repair of the injured alveolus by differentiating into alveolar epithelial type I cells. ATII cells derived from human ES (hES) cells are a promising source of cells that could be used therapeutically to treat distal lung diseases...
