Organoid models have been shown to be valuable tools for studying epithelial-mesenchymal crosstalk during biological and pathological settings. Our data identified ACTA2+ PDGFRα+ repair-supportive mesenchymal cells as an important component of the conducting airway niche. Here, we provide a detailed protocol for culturing airway organoids, or bronchiolospheres, which provide an assessment of the ability of mesenchymal cells to support club-cell growth. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to. Bronchiolospheres are a useful tool to model epithelial-mesenchymal interactions Different types of mesenchymal cells can be used to support club cell growth Cell differentiation within bronchiolospheres can be assessed after 16 days of culture Bronchiolospheres can be passaged multiple times Organoid models have been shown to be valuable tools for studying epithelial-mesenchymal crosstalk during biological and pathological settings. Our data identified ACTA2+ PDGFRα+ repair-supportive mesenchymal cells (RSMCs) as an important component of the conducting airway niche. Here, we provide a detailed protocol for culturing airway organoids, or bronchiolospheres, which provide an assessment of the ability of mesenchymal cells to support club-cell growth.
