An IBEC-led study describes the development of an innovative method to control the formation of crypt-like structures and ...

We spatiotemporally pattern these cues using photoinduced degradation, viscoelasticity, and bond formation to study how intestinal stem cell colonies respond to alterations in geometric confinement, ...

Extract: At 15 days after birth, the small intestine of the rat showed a striking increase in relative weight, an increased depth of intestinal crypts, an elevation of the mitotic and the labeling ...

Background—Fermentable dietary fibre has many effects on the gastrointestinal tract. One is to alter epithelial crypt cell proliferation, especially in the colon. A discrepancy between epithelial cell ...
