- W4205458049 abstract "Summary The lung’s gas exchange surface comprises thin alveolar type 1 (AT1) cells and cuboidal surfactant-secreting AT2 cells that are corrupted in some of the most common and deadly diseases including adenocarcinoma, emphysema, and SARS/Covid-19. These cells arise from an embryonic progenitor whose development into an AT1 or AT2 cell is thought to be dictated by differential mechanical forces. Here we show the critical determinant is FGF signaling. FGF Receptor 2 (Fgfr2) is expressed in mouse progenitors then restricts to nascent AT2 cells and remains on throughout life. Its ligands are expressed in surrounding mesenchyme and can, in the absence of differential mechanical cues, induce purified, uncommitted E16.5 progenitors to form alveolus-like structures with intermingled AT2 and AT1 cells. FGF signaling directly and cell autonomously specifies AT2 fate; progenitors lacking Fgfr2 in vitro and in vivo exclusively acquire AT1 fate. Fgfr2 loss in AT2 cells perinatally results in reprogramming to AT1 fate, whereas loss or inhibition later in life immediately triggers AT2 apoptosis followed by a compensatory regenerative response. We propose Fgfr2 signaling directly selects AT2 fate during development, induces a cell non-autonomous secondary signal for AT1 fate, and stays on throughout life to continuously maintain healthy AT2 cells. One Sentence Summary FGF signaling induces and distinguishes the two cell types of the lung’s gas exchange surface, and the pathway remains on throughout life to maintain one that can be transformed into lung cancer or targeted in the deadly form of SARS/Covid-19." @default.
