Utilizing the Precision-Cut Lung Slice to Study the Contractile Regulation of Airway and Intrapulmonary Arterial Smooth Muscle

Yan Bai, Xingbin AiMassachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School.United States Journal of Visualized ExperimentsJ Vis Exp 2022; DOI: 10.3791/63932 AbstractSmooth muscle cells (SMC) mediate the contraction of the airway and the intrapulmonary artery to modify airflow resistance and pulmonary circulation, respectively, hence playing a critical role in the homeostasis of the pulmonary system. Deregulation of […]
