The illustration shows a small section from the epigenetic landscape for six normal intestinal tissues (blue) as well as five intestinal tumors (red) in mice. Peaks reflect stronger epigenetic ...

As part of the ongoing Human Cell Atlas project, researchers mapped 1.6 million cells in the gastrointestinal tract. Here’s ...

By using an innovative discovery platform, Curileum is identifying new stem cell therapeutic targets in intestinal mucosal, immune and nerve tissues. Rather than simply treating symptoms ...

A new gut cell atlas, comprising data from 1.6 million cells, offers unprecedented insights into gastrointestinal health and disease. A research team led by the Wellcome Sanger Institute has created t ...

They also have a crucial role in tissue engineering. This webinar will explore how we can isolate and expand patient-derived intestinal organoids in culture. By combining these organoids with ...

The inner lining of the small intestine nearly doubles in size during pregnancy and breastfeeding, according to new research in mice and human tissue.

Most tissues, also in adults, can renew with the help of the tissue stem cells that reside in them. The activity of tissue stem cells and the pace of tissue renewal varies a lot depending on the ...

The goal of medical treatment is to stop the abnormal inflammation so intestinal tissue has a chance to heal. As it does, diarrhea and abdominal pain should ease. Once the symptoms are under ...
