Abstract
Abnormal alveolar development and homeostasis are common features of pulmonary disease. Here the authors show that Myh10 expression is reduced in emphysema patients, and that Myh10 loss of function impairs alveolar formation and lung morphogenesis via upregulation of matrix metalloproteinase activity and altered matrix remodeling.
