Airway brush cells: Not as “tuft” as you might think
Science Immunology, 2018CysLT 3 R regulates expansion of chemosensory brush cells and production of IL-25 in the airways. See related Research Article by Bankova et al .

Horizontal cells in the retina of the brush-tailed possum
Experimental Brain Research, 1994Most species of eutherian (placental) mammals examined have two types of horizontal cell, one is axonless and the other has a short axon. We have recently shown that a marsupial, the quokka wallaby, also has two types of horizontal cell and that the axonless cell in this species has unusual stubby processes that pass through the inner nuclear layer to ...

The alveolar brush cell in rat lung—a third pneumonocyte
Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1968In the rat alveolar lining epithelium a third cell type has been found which resembles the brush cell previously described in large airways in rat and in man. It is here reported in rat intrapulmonary airways of all sizes. The brush cell is characterized by blunt, squat microvilli on its free edge, bundles of fine filaments throughout its cytoplasm ...

Preparation of thermoresponsive polymer brush surfaces and their interaction with cells
Biomaterials, 2008Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PIPAAm) brush surfaces with different layer thickness on polystyrene substrates were prepared by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). Surface characteristics of PIPAAm brushes and their influence on adhesion and detachment of bovine carotid artery endothelial cells (ECs) were controlled by PIPAAm ...

Brush cells, the newly identified gatekeepers of the urinary tract
Current Opinion in Urology, 2017A specialized epithelial cell with chemosensory properties of taste cells known from the mouth has been newly identified in the urethra and linked to pathogen recognition. We here describe its properties and its link to defence mechanisms, showing parallels to similar sentinel cells in the respiratory and gastrointestinal tract.In the urethra, slender ...

Alveolar brush cells in an infant with desquamative interstitial pneumonitis
Pediatric Pulmonology, 1988AbstractA full‐term infant developed bilateral pneumothoraces and respiratory distress shortly after birth, despite initially good Apgar scores. Persistent tachypnea, hypoxemia, and a chest X‐ray remarkable for diffuse alveolar and interstitial infiltrates prompted a lung biopsy at 4 months of age.

Polyfunctional role of the alveolar brush cells in the rat lung
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1979By means of scanning and transmission electron microscopy it was demonstrated that the number of vacuoles located in the apical part of cytoplasm in alveolar brush cells of the regenerating rat lung increases, hyperplasia of Golgi-complex takes place and the activation of the protein-synthetising apparatus is evident.
