Developing human upper, lower, and deep lung airway models: Combining different scaffolds and developing complex co-cultures by Rasika S Murkar, Cornelia Wiese-Rischke, Tobias Weigel, Sascha Kopp, Heike Walles

“…Meanwhile standard electrospun polymer membrane (50–60 µm thick), which possesses a considerably low modulus of elasticity, offered higher flexibility and supported co-cultures of primary alveolar epithelial (huAEC) and endothelial cells (hEC) in concert with lung biopsy-derived fibroblasts which enhanced maturation of the tissue model. As published, designing human alveolar in vitro models require thin scaffold to mimic the required ultra-thin ECM, in addition to assuring right balanced AT1/AT2 ratio for biomimetic representation. …”
