Characterization of radioresistant epithelial stem cell heterogeneity in the damaged mouse intestine
22 May 2020
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The small intestine has a robust regenerative capacity, and various cell types serve as “cells-of-origin” in the epithelial regeneration process after injury. However, how much each population contributes to regeneration remains unclear. Using lineage tracing, we found that Lgr5-expressing cell derivatives contained radioresistant intestinal stem cells (ISCs) crucial for epithelial regeneration in the...
