Folliculin haploinsufficiency causes cellular dysfunction of pleural mesothelial cells
Abstract Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome (BHDS), an autosomal dominant inheritance disease caused by folliculin (FLCN) mutations, is associated with lung cysts and spontaneous pneumothorax. The possibility of FLCN haploinsufficiency in pleural mesothelial cells (PMCs) contributing to development of pneumoth...
