Tissue resident mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPC) are important regulators of tissue
repair or regeneration, remodeling, inflammation, and angiogenesis. Here we describe a
technology used to define, isolate, and characterize a population of resident lung MPC in
both human and mouse explanted tissue. The definition of this population using a defined
set of markers facilitates the repeatable isolation of a mesenchymal subpopulation
population by flow cytometry and the subsequent translational study of this specific cell type …
Abstract
Tissue resident mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPC) are important regulators of tissue repair or regeneration, remodeling, inflammation, and angiogenesis. Here we describe a technology used to define, isolate, and characterize a population of resident lung MPC in both human and mouse explanted tissue. The definition of this population using a defined set of markers facilitates the repeatable isolation of a mesenchymal subpopulation population by flow cytometry and the subsequent translational study of this specific cell type and function.
