Alveolar Type I Cells: Molecular Phenotype and Development

Williams, Mary C.·2003·Annual Review of Physiology

Abstract

▪ Abstract Understanding of the functions and regulation of the phenotype of the alveolar type I epithelial cell has lagged behind studies of its neighbor the type II cell because of lack of cell-specific molecular markers. The recent identification of several proteins expressed by type I cells indicates that these cells may play important roles in regulation of cell proliferation, ion transport and water flow, metabolism of peptides, modulation of macrophage functions, and signaling events in the peripheral lung. Cell systems and reagents are available to characterize type I cell biology in detail, an important goal given that the cells provide the extensive surface that facilitates gas exchange in the intact animal.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
