Possible role of intestinal stem cells in the pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome [PDF]
The pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is not completely understood. However, several factors are known to play a role in pathophysiology of IBS such as genetics, diet, gut microbiota, gut endocrine cells, stress and low-grade inflammation.

Identification and characterization of small-molecule ligands that maintain pluripotency of human embryonic stem cells [PDF]
hESCs (human embryonic stem cells) offer great potential for pharmaceutical research and development and, potentially, for therapeutic use. However, improvements in cell culture are urgently required to allow the scalable production of large numbers of ...

Paneth Cells: Dispensable yet Irreplaceable for the Intestinal Stem Cell NicheSummary
Intestinal stem cells replenish the epithelium throughout life by continuously generating intestinal epithelial cell types, including absorptive enterocytes, and secretory goblet, endocrine, and Paneth cells. This process is orchestrated by a symphony of

Intestinal stem cells promote crypt fission during postnatal growth of the small intestine
Objective Wnt-β-catenin signalling is essential for intestinal stem cells. Our aim was to investigate the relationship between intestinal stem cells and crypt fission which peaks during infancy.Design Duodenal biopsies were obtained during endoscopy to ...

Krüppel-like factor 5 (KLF5) is a pro-proliferative transcription factor that is expressed in dividing epithelial cells of the intestinal crypt. Leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptor 5 (Lgr5) has been identified as a stem cell marker ...

Intestinal Stem Cells: Got Calcium? [PDF]
Calcium ions are well-known intracellular signalling molecules. A new study identifies local cytoplasmic calcium as a central integrator of metabolic and proliferative signals in Drosophila intestinal stem cells.

BVES Regulates Intestinal Stem Cell Programs and Intestinal Crypt 1 Viability after 2 Radiation [PDF]
Blood vessel epicardial substance (BVES/Popdc1) is a junctional-associated transmembrane protein that is underexpressed in a number of malignancies and regulates epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. We previously identified a role for BVES in regulation

Background Adult stem cells play an essential role in adult organ physiology and tissue repair and regeneration. While much has been learnt about the property and function of various adult stem cells, the mechanisms of their development remain poorly ...
