Research Abstract |
After left pneumonectomy, bone marrow-derived cells (BMCs) accumulated in the wound and contributed to tissue repair. This phenomenon was possibly addressed that BMCs was differentiated to myofibroblast and vascular endotjelial cells. BMCs which accumulated in the residual lung parenchyma after left pneumonectomy was possibly differentiated to alveolar cells and vascular endothelial cells, which would contribute to regeneration of lung tissue. BMCs would affect tissue repair during the lug regeneration.
