Cover Caption:

Cover Cover: Confocal micrograph of fetal rat lung at term (embryonic day 22). Fetal lungs were fixed at an inflation pressure equal to 10 cmH₂O. Cryosections (3 m) were incubated with monoclonal antibodies directed against RTI₄₀ (green) and RTII₇₀ (red), apical membrane proteins specific to alveolar type I and type II cells, respectively. Autofluorescent (orange and yellow) red blood cells are seen throughout the interstitium. From Yoshizawa J, Chapin CJ, Sbragia L, Ertsey R, Gutierrez JA, Albanese CT, and Kitterman JA. Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 285: L344-L353, 2003.
