2023-01-19
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Paneth cells (PCs), responsible for the secretion of antimicrobial peptides in the small intestine and for niche support to Lgr5+ crypt-base columnar stem cells (CBCs), have been shown to respond to inflammation by dedifferentiating into stem-like cells in order to sustain a regenerative response<sup>1,2</sup>. Therefore, PCs may represent the cells-of-origin of intestinal cancer in the...
