Cell-to-cell interactions in lung development.
A variety of cell-cell interactions, either clearly demonstrated or suspected, are associated with development of the alveolar portion of the lung. It is likely that many of these same cell-cell interactions are associated with lung maintenance in the adult and with lung repair following a variety of lung injuries.
