Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) provide a physical and biochemical barrier that segregates host tissue and commensal bacteria to maintain intestinal homeostasis. Secretory IECs support this ...

肠上皮细胞（intestinal epithelial cell）是宿主细胞与大量外来抗原之间的主要屏障；目前还不清楚肠上皮细胞如何诱导针对病原体的保护性免疫 ...

A newly identified rare cell subset that drives immune tolerance in dietary and gut microbiota may offer a new therapeutic ...

and the presence of driver mutations conferring selection in normal cells of healthy individuals, and those with a range of diseases. Here, as part of a wider human tissue survey, we whole genome ...

The aging of the innermost cell layer of blood vessels leads to cardiovascular diseases. Researchers at UZH have now shown ...

"The intestine has an enormous ability to regenerate itself after injury, and it does this through a model of dedifferentiation," Dempsey explains. "The cells dedifferentiate back into a type of ...

Researchers at the Leibniz Institute for Natural Product Research and Infection Biology—Hans Knöll Institute (Leibniz-HKI) in Jena, Germany, have also found that intestinal cells actively ...

As cancer progresses, some patients develop 'mal ascites' in which body fluid accumulates in the abdominal cavity. Excessive ...

Tuft cells are present throughout the intestinal tract as well as in many organs. Studies in mice have shown that when tuft cells sense the presence of pathogens, they signal to immune cells and ...

In a recent review published in the journal Frontiers in Medicine, a group of authors explored the relationship between intestinal stem cells (ISCs) and the gut microbiota and their role in ...

Researchers from the University of Colorado Cancer Center have solved a cellular mystery that may lead to better therapies for colorectal and other types of cancer. Peter Dempsey, Ph.D., professor ...
