Abstract excerpt
Colon and intestinal crypts have been widely chosen to study cell dynamics because of their fairly simple structures. In the colon and intestinal crypts, stem cells (SCs) are located at very bottom of the crypt, fully differentiated cells (FDs) are located in the top of the crypt, and transit-amplifying cells (TAs) are in the middle of the crypt between FDs and SCs. Recently, it has been discovered that there are...
