Modeling SARS-CoV-2 and influenza infections and antiviral treatments in human lung epithelial tissue equivalents | Communications Biology - Nature.com

Human alveolar and tracheobronchial epithelial air liquid interface (ALI) tissues are used as models to examine cellular responses to SARS-CoV-2 and influenza A virus infections and as antiviral drug screening assay platforms.

Lung epithelial cell expression of known SARS-CoV-2 host entry co-factors in human tracheobronchial and alveolar ALI tissues We first assessed that the ALI tissues (which defines both tracheobronchi… [+28245 chars]
