Multilineage circuits of regenerative cell states

Cell Stem Cell. 2023 Nov 2;30(11):1397-1399. doi: 10.1016/j.stem.2023.10.006.ABSTRACTRegenerating the lungs' architecture after injury requires rebuilding its fibroelastic extracellular matrix scaffold. Konkimalla et al. establish that regenerative cell states (RCSs) of both epithelial and mesenchymal origin are functionally linked and indispensable for this process. Experimental ablation of RCSs causes organ degeneration, whereas their induction causes organ fibrosis.PMID:37922876 | DOI:10.1016/j.stem.2023.10.006
