Preferential FGF18/FGFR activity in pseudoglandular versus canalicular stage human lung fibroblasts

Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling is necessary for proper lung branching morphogenesis, alveolarization, and vascular development. Dysregulation of FGF activity has been implicated in various lung diseases. Recently, we showed that FGF18 promotes human lung branching morphogenesis by regulati...
