Functional human iPSC-derived alveolar-like cells cultured in a miniaturized 96‑Transwell air–liquid interface model

Abstract In order to circumvent the limited access and donor variability of human primary alveolar cells, directed differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) into alveolar-like cells, provides a promising tool for respiratory disease modeling and drug discovery assays. In this work, a...
