Human Tracheal Epithelial Cells: HTEpC-AS
Human Tracheal Epithelial Cells: Asthma: HTEpC-AS
Description
Human Tracheal Epithelial Cells (HTEpC) provide a useful model system to study all aspects of epithelial function and disease, particularly those related to airway viral infections, as well as tissue repair mechanisms, signaling changes and potential treatments relevant to lung injuries, mechanical and oxidative stress, pulmonary diseases and smoking. Note that Cell Applications, Inc. offers HTEpC obtained from healthy donors, as well as from asthma patients.
HTEpC from Cell Applications, Inc. have been used in a study investigating the role of goblet cell hyperplasia, possibly mediated by the expression of SPDEF, to the pathogenesis of chronic pulmonary diseases.
Characterization: Morphology consistent with epithelial origin, and positive for epithelial cell marker cytokeratin 18
Cell Applications offers a wide panel of cells for use in asthma research and airway drug development, such as Bronchial & Tracheal Epithelial Cells, Pulmonary & Lung Microvascular Endothelial cells and others. Multiple donor profiles and lots are available. Asthma (AS) is a chronic disease that inflames and narrows air passageways in the lungs. This airflow obstruction, which can flare up at any time, causes shortness of breath and can be life-threating in severe cases. Asthma often starts during childhood, and while there’s no cure, scientists and pharmaceutical companies have made strides in understanding, treating and managing the disease.
