Immunocytochemical studies suggest two pathways for enteroendocrine cell differentiation in the colon
1 Aug 1992
Abstract excerpt
Enteroendocrine cells represent the most heterogeneous population of terminally differentiated cells in the mouse intestinal epithelium. Each of the approximately 15 different enteroendocrine cell subpopulations shows characteristic distributions along both the cephalocaudal and crypt-to-villus (in the small intestine) or crypt-to-surface epithelial cuff (in the colon) axes of the gut.
