Ciliated (hair-like) Epithelial tissues can be just one cell thick or organized so that they have several layers. ... These are columnar epithelial cells that have different heights.

The trachea and bronchi are lined by a pseudostratified, ciliated, columnar epithelium, with goblet (mucous-secreting) cells and submucosal (mucous- and liquid-secreting) glands also present.

Nasal ciliated cells are primary targets for SARS-CoV-2 replication in the early stage of COVID-19. Journal of Clinical Investigation , 2021; 131 (13) DOI: 10.1172/JCI148517 Cite This Page : ...

By first collecting the cells, the team can efficiently analyze hundreds of cells in minutes. Results were published in and featured on the inside back cover of the journal Soft Matter in the June ...

Scientists have recently uncovered the processes involved in the earliest stages of COVID-19 infection, determining that multiciliated cells in the nasal epithelium are the primary targets for ...

SARS-CoV-2 replication targets nasal ciliated cells early in COVID-19 infection. The establishment of nasal mucosal immunity against SARS-CoV-2 through a nasal vaccine could be the most efficient ...
