Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells-Non Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis

Description

Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells–Non Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis are isolated from bronchial airway tissue obtained from donors diagnosed with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis. Bronchial epithelial cells form the first line of defense in the respiratory tract and play important roles in mucociliary clearance, innate immunity, and airway barrier function. Following primary isolation and culture, the cells are cryopreserved for research applications. These cells have been reported to express epithelial markers including CK18, CK19, E-cadherin, and EpCAM. In vitro, the cells exhibit a characteristic cobblestone-like morphology and grow as an adherent monolayer. They are widely used for studies of airway inflammation, host-pathogen interactions, mucosal immunity, and chronic respiratory diseases. Each lot undergoes extensive screening procedures and is tested for the absence of mycoplasma, fungi, yeast, and bacterial contamination.
