Human airway tuft cells influence the mucociliary clearance through cholinergic signalling

Human airway tuft cells influence the mucociliary clearance through cholinergic signalling

Abstract Background Airway tuft cells, formerly called brush cells have long been described only morphologically in human airways. More recent RNAseq studies described a chemosensory cell population, which includes tuft cells, by a distinct gene transcription signature. Yet, until which level in the...
