Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a leading cause of death worldwide, while our understanding of cell-specific mechanisms underlying its pathobiology remains incomplete. Here the authors perform scRNA-seq of human lung tissue to identify transcriptional changes in alveolar niche cells associated with the disease.
