Isolated from the surface epithelium of human bronchi, our primary Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells (HBEpC) display positive cytokeratin staining. Responsible for tasks such as lung lubrication, humidity maintenance, and respiratory tract cleaning, these cells are critical targets for drugs, toxins, and carcinogens. Their involvement in diseases like cystic fibrosis underscores their significance in researching respiratory system function and pathology.
