Brush cells fine-tune neurogenic inflammation in the airways

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2022
Airway epithelial cells, once considered a simple barrier layer, are now recognized as providing an active site for antigen sensing and immune response initiation.

ENaC in Cholinergic Brush Cells [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2018
Cholinergic polymodal chemosensory cells in the mammalian urethra (urethral brush cells = UBC) functionally express the canonical bitter and umami taste transduction signaling cascade. Here, we aimed to determine whether UBC are functionally equipped for the perception of salt through ENaC (epithelial sodium channel). Cholinergic UBC were isolated from

Single-cell RNA sequencing of bronchoscopy specimens: development of a rapid minimal handling protocol

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2023
Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) is an important tool for understanding disease pathophysiology, including airway diseases. Currently, the majority of scRNA-seq studies in airway diseases have used invasive methods (airway biopsy, surgical ...

The Mysterious Pulmonary Brush Cell [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2005
Brush cells, also termed tuft, caveolated, multivesicular, and fibrillovesicular cells, are part of the epithelial layer in the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts. The cells are characterized by the presence of a tuft of blunt, squat microvilli (approximately 120-140/cell) on the cell surface. The microvilli contain filaments that stretch into the

Controlled surface initiated polymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide from polycaprolactone substrates for regulating cell attachment and detachment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) substrates were modified with thermoresponsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) brushes to direct and control cellular attachment and detachment. Prior to brush growth, the surface of PCL was activated by a diamine to allow
