Gli1+ mesenchymal stromal cells form a pathological niche to promote airway progenitor metaplasia in the fibrotic lung

Cassandras M, Wang C, Kathiriya J, Tsukui T, Matatia P, Matthay M, Wolters P, Molofsky A, Sheppard D, Chapman H, Peng T (2020) Gli1+ mesenchymal stromal cells form a pathological niche to promote airway progenitor metaplasia in the fibrotic lung. Nat Cell Biol 22(11):1295-1306. doi: 10.1038/s41556-020-00591-9 PMID: 33046884

Objective: To show that Gli1+ mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) promote metaplastic differentiation of airway progenitors into KRT5+ basal cells.

Summary: Gli1+ MSCs integrate hedgehog signaling as a rheostat to control BMP activation in the progenitor niche to determine regenerative outcome in fibrosis.

Usage: Histology and Immunofluorescence (1:200)
