Passaging Primary Human Bronchial Epithelia Reduces CFTR-Mediated Fluid Transport and Alters mRNA Expression

Primary human bronchial epithelial cultures (HBECs) are used to study airway physiology, disease, and drug development. HBECs often replicate human airway physiology/pathophysiology. Indeed, in the search for cystic fibrosis (CF) transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) therapies, HBECs were seen...
