A novel iPSC-derived lung-on-chip model mimics human alveolar tissue, revealing macrophage-driven tuberculosis responses.

Using human stem cells, scientists have created a miniature lung that mimics breathing and TB infection, opening new ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and AlveoliX have developed the first human lung-on-chip model using stem cells ...

For the first time, a breathing lung model has been made using cells from only one person. Announced on January 1, the ...

Scientists create the first single-donor stem cell lung-on-chip to study tuberculosis and personalise treatment.

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute, a biomedical research centre based in London, and AlveoliX, a leading Swiss ...

Alveoli are the basic functional units of the human respiratory system, acting as tiny air sacs that exchange gases. Air inhaled through the mouth and nose flows into the lungs through the branched ...

WASHINGTON, Sept. 6, 2022 – Alveoli are the basic functional units of the human respiratory system, acting as tiny air sacs that exchange gases. Air inhaled through the mouth and nose flows into the ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and AlveoliX have developed the first human 'lung-on-chip' model using stem cells ...

This schematic shows how the small airsacs of the lung called alveoli, specifically the alveolar-capillary interface that is the major site of radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) is modeled on the ...

The alveoli are microscopic, balloon-like structures in the lungs that play a crucial role in respiration. If they are damaged, they may be able to self-repair, but medical attention is key to ...
