Frontispiece: Spatiotemporal single‐cell transcriptomic profiling reveals inflammatory cell states in a mouse model of diffuse alveolar damage (EXP2 3/2023)

This study presents a comprehensive cellular atlas describing the ongoing pulmonary immune responses in the early stages of diffuse alveolar damage. This work indicates a vital role of the hyper-inflammatory fibroblast subset around the bronchus, in mediating neutrophil infiltration through secreting soluble signaling mediators, thus boosting neutrophilic airway inflammation.
