Delayed airway epithelial repair is correlated with airway obstruction in young adults born very preterm
<b>Nasal epithelial cells from young adults with a history of very preterm birth show delayed closure following scratch-wounding. Repair correlated with lung function, suggesting epithelial barrier integrity may play a role in preterm-associated lung disease.</b> https://bit.ly/4dJnvWO.
