The intestinal epithelial stem cell: the mucosal governor

Open access
POTTEN, CHRISTOPHER S., BOOTH, CATHERINE, PRITCHARD, D. MARK·1997·International Journal of Experimental Pathology

Abstract

All epithelial cells in the small and large intestine are thought to originate from stem cells located towards the base of the crypts of Lieberkühn. To‐date, there are no specific intestinal stem cell markers, hence stem cell properties can only be inferred. A range of experimental techniques have been employed including cell position mapping, radiation regeneration (clonogenic) assays, chimeric and transgenic mice. This review discusses the implications of experiments performed using these techniques in order to deduce the number, location and functional properties of stem cells. Stem cell homeostasis is maintained by cell proliferation and death ‘through apoptosis’. The various growth and matrix factors and genes which may control these processes, and be important for stem cell function, are discussed along with their carcinogenic and clinical implications.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
