Had a wonderful time at the @bsgct.bsky.social annual conference!
I was delighted to be able to share our work on human airway epithelial cell culture for transplantation and how this contributes to the @epicentr.bsky.social efforts towards a cell and gene therapy for airway epidermolysis bullosa.

🚨Today our phenotypic screening work with primary human airway basal cells is published @jcellsci.bsky.social!
We found that multiple Wnt activating compounds promote basal cell proliferation and validated 1-azakenpaullone in vivo.

Compound screening in human airway basal cells identifies Wnt pathway activators as potential pro-regenerative therapies
Summary: A high-throughput screen of 1429 compounds in primary human airway epithelial cells was used to identify that Wnt pathway-activating compounds increase cell proliferation.
