US Scientists Develop First 3D Mini Lungs from Human Stem Cells

Scientists at the University of Michigan have, for the first time, succeeded in growing 3D mini lungs from human stem cells, and the resulting structures resemble both the large proximal airways and the small distal airways. The advantage of growing 3D structures is that their organization bears greater similarity to the human lung. The ingredients included in the process were embryonic stem cells, proteins involved in lung development, growth factors, inhibitors ...
