Abstract excerpt
Knowledge of the kinetics and stem cell localization of the mouse lingual epithelium is largely based on studies using DNA labelling techniques. We have adopted a different approach, using histochemistry for the X-linked enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD). We have deduced clone size and morphology from studies of patch size and distribution in mice heterozygous for G6PD deficiency and from the...
