Primary Human Nasal Epithelial Cells: Biobanking in the Context of Precision Medicine

Here we describe the isolation, amplification, and differentiation of primary human nasal epithelial (HNE) cells at the air-liquid interface and a biobanking protocol allowing to successfully freeze and then thaw amplified HNE. The protocol analyzes electrophysiological properties of differentiated HNE cells and CFTR-related chloride secretion correction upon different modulator treatments.
