mTORC1 signaling facilitates differential stem cell differentiation to shape the developing murine lung and is associated with mitochondrial capacity
Lung branching requires differentiation of progenitor cells to be coordinated with morphogenetic events. Zhang et al. find that loss of mTORC1 signaling in the distal SOX9+ lung progenitors reduces mitochondrial capacity and ATP production, thus disrupting the formation of the conducting airways wit...
