indicating a potential intriguing use of adult human epithelial cells recovered from the trachea. Human bronchial epithelial cells self-construct into multicellular motile living architectures.

The trachea has a number of adaptations: cartilage rings in the walls of the trachea help to keep it open ciliated epithelium and goblet cells to clean ... the lungs. Cilia are small hairs which ...

Epithelial cells come in several shapes to form different types of epithelial membranes. These types include: Columnar Cubical Squamous (flat) Irregular Ciliated (hair-like) Epithelial tissues ...

These cilia are linked to signaling pathways that regulate their motility, allowing epithelial tissues in airways to ... genes in samples of human airway epithelia, the cells that line the trachea and ...

The study, published in Science, found that a population of basal cells found in the trachea (windpipe ... with secretory cells producing protective substances, or ciliated cells that help move ...
