In a recently published Science paper, 1 his team described how they developed a biomaterial tissue scaffold that allows intestinal stem cells to self-organize into organoids with patterned crypt-like ...

An IBEC-led study describes the development of an innovative method to control the formation of crypt-like structures and villi in the intestine using a contact protein printing technique.

an increased depth of intestinal crypts, an elevation of the mitotic and the labeling index of crypt cells, and a decrease in the ratio of height of the villi to depth of the crypts. Metabolically ...

Intestinal stem cells are multipotent adult stem cells, which in mammals reside in the base of the crypts of the adult intestine. Intestinal stem cells continuously self-renew by dividing and ...
