STORM: a general model to determine the number and adaptive changes of epithelial stem cells in teleost, murine and human intestinal tracts.

Intestinal stem cells play a pivotal role in the epithelial tissue renewal, homeostasis and cancer development. The lack of a general marker for intestinal stem cells across species has hampered analysis of stem cell number in different species and their adaptive changes upon intestinal lesions or d...
