How can you use “pneumocytes” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
They produce alveolar surfactant and replicate and differentiate into type I pneumocytes after lung injury [ 11].
This possibility is consistent with the nature of type II pneumocytes, as they are known to be long-lived in culture [ 32].
Cells in the apical areas of the alveoli are usually type II pneumocytes, and the non-ciliated cuboidal epithelial cells in the very distal parts of the respiratory tree are usually Clara cells [ 16].
Since type II pneumocytes transform into type I pneumocytes in response to lung injury [ 11], it is possible that this process requires a higher amount of ATP.
To confirm this possibility, in situ hybridization with a probe specific for type II pneumocytes and Clara cells was performed.
