The intestinal epithelial stem cell: the mucosal governor
C S Potten et al. Int J Exp Pathol. 1997 Aug.
Abstract
All epithelial cells in the small and large intestine are thought to originate from stem cells located towards the base of the crypts of Lieberkühn. To-date, there are no specific intestinal stem cell markers, hence stem cell properties can only be inferred. A range of experimental techniques have been employed including cell position mapping, radiation regeneration (clonogenic) assays, chimeric and transgenic mice. This review discusses the implications of experiments performed using these techniques in order to deduce the number, location and functional properties of stem cells. Stem cell homeostasis is maintained by cell proliferation and death 'through apoptosis'. The various growth and matrix factors and genes which may control these processes, and be important for stem cell function, are discussed along with their carcinogenic and clinical implications.
