Development of methods to culture airway epithelial cells has been needed to carry out research into various lung diseases, such as cancer, cystic fibrosis, and bronchial asthma. However, the culture of airway epithelial cells remained difficult. We have improved the culture conditions of these cells, so that these cells can now be used to better understand the mechanisms underlying cystic fibrosis (1 -4 , for characterizing viral infections (5 -7 ), and for advancing our knowledge of airway inflammation.
