Deriving functional human enteroendocrine cells from pluripotent stem cells
1 Jan 2018
Abstract excerpt
Enteroendocrine cells (EECs) are a minor cell population in the intestine yet they play a major role in digestion, satiety, and nutrient homeostasis. Recent development of human intestinal organoid models include EECs, but their rarity makes it difficult to study their formation and function. Here we used the EEC-inducting property of the transcription factor NEUROG3 in human pluripotent stem cell (PSC)-derived...
