Lung Regeneration: Endogenous and Exogenous Stem Cell Mediated Therapeutic Approaches

The tissue turnover of unperturbed adult lung is remarkably slow. However, after injury or insult, a specialised group of facultative lung progenitors become activated to replenish damaged tissue through a reparative process called regeneration. Disruption in this process results in healing by fibro...
