The role of cervical reserve cells in epithelial regeneration and homeostasis in the murine and human cervix
2021-01-01
Abstract excerpt
How cervical epithelium maintains homeostasis and repair, and how the high-risk human papilloma viruses (HR-HPV) drive neoplasia at the cervical transformation zone (TZ) has been poorly researched. The cervical TZ is thought to be a stem cell niche as it harbours a unique cell population called reserve cells. Reserve cells (marked by KRT17) are believed to have a dual fate ability depending on local microenvironme...
