This Journal Club involves the presentation of the late publication by Ke Yuan, PhD in EMBO J, titled: ‘Specialized pericyte subtypes in the pulmonary capillaries’. This publication highlights the identification of two pericyte subtypes in the pulmonary circulation, answering a longstanding conundrum on how pericytes may either contribute to disease and at the same time are essential to integrity of the lung circulation. 

Two international experts in the field will join the discussion and give their views on the presented data. The panelists include prof.dr. Lan Zhao, MD, PhD (Imperial College, London) and prof.dr. Grazyna Kwapiszewska, PhD (Graz University, Austria). The discussion will be hosted by Jurjan Aman, MD, PhD (Amsterdam UMC, NL).
