Rac1 pathway mediates stretch response in pulmonary alveolar epithelial cells

Alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) maintain the pulmonary blood-gas barrier integrity with gasketlike intercellular tight junctions (TJ) that are anchored internally to the actin cytoskeleton. We have previously shown that AEC monolayers stretched cyclically and equibiaxially undergo rapid magnitude-...
