Human apical-out nasal organoids reveal an essential role of matrix metalloproteinases in airway epithelial differentiation

Abstract Extracellular matrix (ECM) assembly/disassembly is a critical regulator for airway epithelial development and remodeling. Airway organoid is widely used in respiratory research, yet there is limited study to indicate the roles and mechanisms of ECM organization in epithelial growth and diff...
