An international team of scientists based in the Netherlands, and in China, has found that intestinal cells can change specializations during their lives, driven by the BMP signaling pathway, an ...

Intestinal cells can change specializations during their lives. The BMP signaling pathway – an important communication mechanism between cells – appears to be the driver of these changes. That is wat ...

Intestinal cells can change specializations during their lives. The BMP signaling pathway -- an important communication mechanism between cells -- appears to be the driver of these changes, according ...

The intestinal epithelium of our body consists of a myriad of elongated villi microarchitectures which increase the total surface area of the inner wall for better absorption of digested nutrients.

Intestinal cells can change specializations during their lives. The BMP signaling pathway – an important communication mechanism between cells – appears to be the driver of these changes. That is what ...

Through a collaboration between Cornell and the State University of Binghamton in February, scientists found that food grade nanoparticles may potentially have detrimental effects on the function and ...

To help improve understanding of how the small intestine operates in both health and disease, researchers had developed “organoids” by isolating intestinal stem cells from human biopsies. Although ...

Chemical and Biological Engineering PhD student Max Yavitt is the lead author on a new paper in Science Advancesthat focuses on intestinal tissue research. The work could allow researchers to control ...

Stress has always been an ugly word, and for good reason. In addition to causing people headaches and sleeplessness, ongoing stress can quietly damage the gut—the body’s complex doorway between food ...
