These Lgr5+ cells were located at the very bottom of glands, or crypts, in the intestinal lining. However, in the last decade, problems with this model began to appear. Deleting the Lgr5+ cells in ...
Intestinal stem cell-specific TLR4 expression affects the proliferation and apoptosis rate in the intestinal crypt. In addition, stem cell lineage commitment is also influenced by stem cell ...
In a recently published Science paper, 1 his team described how they developed a biomaterial tissue scaffold that allows intestinal stem cells to self-organize into organoids with patterned crypt-like ...
Previous investigations have demonstrated that lactoferrin in human colostrum stimulates thymidine uptake into the DNA of harvested mature rat intestinal crypt cells. The effect of cow milk- and ...
We spatiotemporally pattern these cues using photoinduced degradation, viscoelasticity, and bond formation to study how intestinal stem cell colonies respond to alterations in geometric confinement, ...
A human intestinal organoid, displaying typical ‘budding crypts’ and a central ‘villus-like’ domain. The main intestinal cell types are shown in green, blue, red and purple. Membranes are ...
To understand the sequence of these early events, the researchers did a timed deletion of one or both aPKC in intestinal epithelial cells ... This was followed by the appearance of precancerous cells ...
