THE execution phase is the “active” phase of apopto-sis occurring immediately after a cell
commits to the death program. It lasts about an hour and is characterized by the hallmark …

Advances in our understanding of stem cells in the gastrointestinal tract include the identification
of molecular markers of stem and early progenitor cells in the small intestine. Although …

It has long been known that differentiated cells can switch fates, especially in vitro, but only
recently has there been a critical mass of publications describing the mechanisms adult, …

Natural killer (NK) cells are classically viewed as lymphocytes that provide innate surveillance
against virally infected cells and tumour cells through the release of cytolytic mediators …

We have identified cellular and molecular features of the stem cell niche required for marked
amplification of mouse colonic epithelial progenitors (ColEPs) that occurs in response to …

… JC Mills and NL Stone contributed equally to this work. … Time-lapse videomicroscopy of
cells was performed as described previously (Mills et al., 1995). Briefly, images were obtained …

Proliferation of the self-renewing epithelium of the gastric corpus occurs almost exclusively in
the isthmus of the glands, from where cells migrate bidirectionally toward pit and base. The …
