Dynamic Assembly of Human Salivary Stem/Progenitor Microstructures Requires Coordinated α1β1 Integrin-Mediated Motility
A tissue engineering approach can provide replacement salivary gland structures to patients with hyposalivation disorders and xerostomia. Salivary human stem/progenitor cells (hS/PCs) were isolated from healthy regions of parotid glands of head and neck surgery patients, expanded, then encapsulated...
