Patient-derived Airway Cultures
Airway models derived from explants of primary cells grown at the air-liquid interface (ALI)
Description
Patient-derived ALI cultures generated using commercially available Normal Human Bronchial Epithelial (NHBE) are ideal for studying airway diseases, respiratory biology, and drug testing, offering a patient-specific approach for exploring lung pathophysiology and developing targeted therapies.
