Wound healing capacity of immortalized BCi-NS1.1 cells. BCi-NS1.1 cells were cultured on air-liquid interface (ALI) culture and the ability of the cells to repair injury to the epithelium assessed at ALI day 0, 7, 14, 21 and 28. Images were obtained at the time of injury (t = 0) and 20 hr later (t = 20) once repair had taken place. All data shown is representative of n = 5 independent experiments using BCi-NS1.1 cells between passage 7 to 44.
