Abstract excerpt
Declines in tissue renewal and repair due to alterations in tissue stem cells is a hallmark of aging. Many stem cell pools are maintained by morphologically complex niches. Using the C. elegans hermaphrodite germline stem cell system, we analyzed age-related changes in the morphology of the niche, the distal tip cell (DTC), and identified a molecular mechanism that promotes a subset of these changes. We found...
