| Application | FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY Rat tracheal epithelial cells (RTE) offer valuable applications in the study of tracheal cell biology. Their capacity to be manipulated into different phenotypes in culture settings is instrumental for research on the molecular control of tracheal cell proliferation, differentiation, and function. Moreover, RTE monolayer cultures have proven essential in investigating cellular transformations, especially regarding changes in growth factors and their receptors, shedding light on critical aspects of tracheal biology and paving the way for advancements in respiratory research. | |||

Rat tracheal epithelial cells, derived from the tracheal tissue of laboratory Sprague-Dawley rats, exhibit versatile differentiation capabilities under specific in vitro conditions. These cells can develop into mucociliary, mucous, or squamous phenotypes, with the expression of a mucociliary phenotype being most faithful to the in vivo tracheal epithelium morphology. Achieving this mucociliary phenotype necessitates the presence of retinoic acid (RA), a collagen gel substratum, and an air-liquid interface at the cellular level. In contrast, omitting RA from the culture media leads to stratified squamous cells with a cornified apical layer. This squamous phenotype is marked by the loss of transglutaminase type II and keratin 18, accompanied by the expression of squamous markers transglutaminase type I and keratin 13.- ONLINE INQUIRY
