bearer of has characteristic has plasma membrane part capable of surfactant secreting cell club cell club cell of bronchiole FMA:14119 bronchiolar non-ciliated cell BTO:0004811 Clara cell Epithelial progenitor cell of the lung. Club cells are dome-shaped with short microvilli but no cilia. They function to protect the bronchiolar epithelium. Club cells also multiply and differentiate into ciliated cells to regenerate the bronchiolar epithelium. bronchial epithelial cell microvillus secretion by cell surfactant homeostasis Homo sapiens domed
