  • Airway Epithelium
    Jonathan Widdicombe
    The airways are lined with a film of fluid 10 ?m deep that acts as the first line of defense against inhaled pathogens, dirt, and noxious vapors. Transepithelial fluid movements driven by active transepithelial ion transport serve to regulate the depth of this 'airway surface liquid'. In the larger airways, a mucus gel derived from both glands and surface epithelium entraps inh...

  • Respiratory Muscles
    Gary C. Sieck / Gary CSieck / Heather M. Gransee / Heather MGransee
    Breathing is usually automatic and without conscious effort; yet our breathing is a complex motor function requiring the coordinated activation of a number of respiratory muscles that span from our heads to our abdomen. Some of our respiratory muscles serve to pump air into and out of our lungs (ventilation). These pump muscles act on the thoracic and abdominal walls and are al...

  • Stem Cells and Extracellular Matrices
    Lakshmi Kiran Chelluri
    Stem cells have great potential in regenerative medicine and tissue injury. Regulation of stem cell homeostasis in a 3D microenvironment is controlled by the niche components that influence stem cell fate, regulation, and function. It is therefore necessary to understand the mechanisms of cell-cell interaction, molecular cross talk between stem cells and their extracellular mat...
