Impaired Wound Healing of Alveolar Lung Epithelial Cells in a Breathing Lung-On-A-Chip
The lung alveolar region experiences remodeling during several acute and chronic lung diseases, as for instance idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a fatal disease, whose onset is correlated with repetitive microinjuries to the lung alveolar epithelium and abnormal alveolar wound repair. Although a...
