Single-cell microencapsulation improves lung retention of endothelial colony forming cells after intravascular delivery and unmasks therapeutic benefit in severe pulmonary arterial hypertension

This study shows that microencapsulation of endothelial colony forming cells (ECFCs) improves their lung retention and therapeutic efficacy in a rat model of pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Targeting extracellular vesicle delivery to the lungs by microgel encapsulation

This study encapsulates extracellular vesicles in microgels to enhance their targeted delivery to the lungs, showing prolonged retention and increased uptake by lung cells.

Novel Apelin-expressing gCap Endothelial Stem-like Cells Orchestrate Lung Microvascular Repair

This study identifies novel apelin-expressing gCap endothelial stem-like cells that drive lung microvascular repair after endothelial cell ablation by apelin signaling.
