When inflammation damages the intestinal lining, differentiated enterocytes and crypt base columnar stem cells (CBCs) revert to a regenerative, fetal-like state and form revival stem cells (revSCs).
A recent study comparing young and aged mouse intestinal tissues revealed a delicate balance between IFN-γ signaling and ERK/MAPK signaling as crucial for maintaining the intestinal stem cell ...
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center researchers have identified a metabolic switch that determines whether intestinal stem cells become absorptive or secretory cells. Manipulating the enzyme OGDH ...
