Description
Human Lung Fibroblasts (HLF) provide an excellent model system to study many aspects of human pulmonary function and pathophysiology.
HLF from Cell Applications, Inc. have been utilized in a number of research publications, for example to demonstrate
- Differential gene expression, cytokines, growth factors and interleukins
- Receptor activation, inhibition and receptor-interacting protein
- Cell behavior changes, including synthesis of collagen and other extracellular matrix molecules, as well as actin reorganization, collagen contraction and fibroblast / myofibroblast trans-differentiation.
- Lung disease, disorders and injury, including hypoxia, tissue rigidity, pulmonary fibrosis and hypertension
- That unwanted cell growth can be inhibited, and that the healing process can be understood and improved
