Mesenchymal Stem Cells for lung repair Daniel J. Weiss Chapter 3. The Role of Progenitor Cells in Lung Disease Prognosis Ellen L. Burnham, Susan Majka and Marc Moss Chapter 4. The Role of Fibrocytes in Lung Repair and Fibrosis Ellen C. Keeley, Borna Mehrad, and Robert M. Strieter Chapter 5. Stem Cells and Cell-Matrix interactions in Lung Viranuj Sueblinvong and Jesse Roman Chapter 6. Mobilization of stem cells/progenitor cells by physical activity Patrick Wahl and Wilhelm Bloch Chapter 7. Mesenchymal Stems Cells for the Acute Lung Injury Jae W. Lee, Naveen Gupta, and Michael A.

Here are the most relevant ideas on the use of local, endogenous, and exogenous progenitor/stem cells to prevent and treat lung injury, from mesenchymal stem cells in lung repair to the effect of physical activity on mobilization of stem and progenitor cells.
