| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to establish a technique to differentiate mouse induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells to respiratory epithelial tissue and to regenerate tracheal tissue. The presence of respiratory epithelium-like tissue was observed after several days culture by hematoxylin eosin staining and immunohistochemistry. This is the first study to demonstrate the potential of iPS cells for regeneration of the respiratory epithelium.
