Lung development and regeneration: newly defined cell types and progenitor status

Abstract The lung is the most critical organ of the respiratory system supporting gas exchange. Constant interaction with the external environment makes the lung vulnerable to injury. Thus, a deeper understanding of cellular and molecular processes underlying lung development programs and evaluation...

description Abstract The lung is the most critical organ of the respiratory system supporting gas exchange. Constant interaction with the external environment makes the lung vulnerable to injury. Thus, a deeper understanding of cellular and molecular processes underlying lung development programs and evaluation of progenitor status within the lung is an essential part of lung regenerative medicine. In this review, we aim to discuss the current understanding of lung development process and regenerative capability. We highlight the advances brought by multi-omics approaches, single-cell transcriptome, in particular, that can help us further dissect the cellular player and molecular signaling underlying those processes.
