Mechanical stretch promotes apoptosis and impedes ciliogenesis of primary human airway basal stem cells

Abstract Background Airway basal stem cells (ABSCs) have self-renewal and differentiation abilities. Although an abnormal mechanical environment related to chronic airway disease (CAD) can cause ABSC dysfunction, it remains unclear how mechanical stretch regulates the behavior and structure of ABSCs...
