A549 cells are adenocarcinomic human alveolar basal epithelial cells, and constitute a cell line that was first developed in 1972 by D. J. Giard, et al. through the removal and culturing of cancerous lung tissue in the explanted tumor of a 58-year-old caucasian male. [1]

The Human Cell Atlas project, which started in 2016, had as one of its goals to "catalog all cell types (for example, immune cells or brain cells) and sub-types in the human body". [13] By 2018, the Human Cell Atlas description based the project on the assumption that "our characterization of the hundreds of types and subtypes of cells in the ...
A549 cells share the same characteristics with the alveolar type II cells. This are type II pneumocytes crucial for lung homeostasis, and regeneration upon damage. For research purposes to unravel different molecular mechanisms leading to lung diseases, A549 cells serves as a good model to which translational research can be relied upon.

Most immortalised cell lines are classified by the cell type they originated from or are most similar to biologically 3T3 cells – a mouse fibroblast cell line derived from a spontaneous mutation in cultured mouse embryo tissue. A549 cells – derived from a cancer patient lung tumor
The cells can also be tested in vivo via xenografts with rodents. HT-29 cells terminally differentiate into enterocytes with the replacement of glucose by galactose in cell culture, and with the addition of butyrate or acids, the differentiation pathways can be closely studied along with their dependence on surrounding conditions.
