Interleukin-9 production by type 2 innate lymphoid cells induces Paneth cell metaplasia and small intestinal remodeling
Paneth cell metaplasia (PCM) typically arises in pre-existing gastrointestinal (GI) diseases; however, the mechanistic pathway that induces...

A tuft cell - ILC2 signaling circuit provides therapeutic targets to inhibit gastric metaplasia and tumor development
Although gastric cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths, systemic treatment strategies remain scarce. Here, we report the pro-tumorigenic...

Hepatocytes differentiate into intestinal epithelial cells through a hybrid epithelial/mesenchymal cell state in culture
Hepatocytes play important roles in the liver, but in culture, they immediately lose function and dedifferentiate into progenitor-like cells....
-
Spatiotemporal reprogramming of differentiated cells underlies regeneration and neoplasia in the intestinal epithelium
Although the mammalian intestinal epithelium manifests robust regenerative capacity after various cytotoxic injuries, the underlying mechanism has...

Enhanced SREBP2-driven cholesterol biosynthesis by PKCλ/ι deficiency in intestinal epithelial cells promotes aggressive serrated tumorigenesis
The metabolic and signaling pathways regulating aggressive mesenchymal colorectal cancer (CRC) initiation and progression through the serrated route...

Notch signaling drives development of Barrett’s metaplasia from Dclk1-positive epithelial tuft cells in the murine gastric mucosa
Barrett’s esophagus (BE) is a precursor to esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), but its cellular origin and mechanism of neoplastic progression remain...

Long-term endoscopic gastric mucosal changes up to 20 years after Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy
Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy reduces the risk of gastric cancer. However, it is unclear whether the severity of risk factors for gastric...

Inflammatory bowel disease-specific findings are common morphological changes in the ileal pouch with ulcerative colitis
Why inflammation is common in ileal pouches with ulcerative colitis (UC) is unclear. We therefore clarified the morphological changes in pouches and...

Investigation of risk factors for metachronous recurrence in patients with early gastric adenocarcinoma by miRNA–mRNA integral profiling
The mechanism of metachronous recurrence (MR) after performing endoscopic treatment for early gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) and eradicating Helicobacter...

Epithelial TGFβ engages growth-factor signalling to circumvent apoptosis and drive intestinal tumourigenesis with aggressive features
The pro-tumourigenic role of epithelial TGFβ signalling in colorectal cancer (CRC) is controversial. Here, we identify a cohort of born to be bad ...
-
Cellular reprogramming in vivo initiated by SOX4 pioneer factor activity
Tissue damage elicits cell fate switching through a process called metaplasia, but how the starting cell fate is silenced and the new cell fate is...
-
Persistent dysbiosis of duodenal microbiota in patients with controlled pediatric Crohn’s disease after resolution of inflammation
Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory condition of the intestine characterized by largely unknown etiology and a relapse remission cycle of disease...
-
Decoding spatiotemporal transcriptional dynamics and epithelial fibroblast crosstalk during gastroesophageal junction development through single cell analysis
The gastroesophageal squamocolumnar junction (GE-SCJ) is a critical tissue interface between the esophagus and stomach, with significant relevance in...
-
Enabling large-scale screening of Barrett’s esophagus using weakly supervised deep learning in histopathology
Timely detection of Barrett’s esophagus, the pre-malignant condition of esophageal adenocarcinoma, can improve patient survival rates. The...

Malfunction of airway basal stem cells plays a crucial role in pathophysiology of tracheobronchopathia osteoplastica
Understanding disease-associated stem cell abnormality has major clinical implications for prevention and treatment of human disorders, as well as...

Inhibition of mucus secretion by niclosamide and benzbromarone in airways and intestine
The Ca 2+ activated Cl − channel TMEM16A (anoctamin 1; ANO1) is expressed in secretory epithelial cells of airways and intestine. Previous studies...

Bi-glandular and persistent enterovirus infection and distinct changes of the pancreas in slowly progressive type 1 diabetes mellitus
In slowly progressive type 1 diabetes mellitus (SPIDDM), the pancreas shows sustained islet inflammation, pancreatitis, pancreatic acinar cell...

Exploration of lncRNA/circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network in patients with chronic atrophic gastritis in Tibetan plateau areas based on DNBSEQ-G99 RNA sequencing
A higher incidence of chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is generally considered as a precancerous lesion in gastric cancer (GC). The aim of this study...

A MTA2-SATB2 chromatin complex restrains colonic plasticity toward small intestine by retaining HNF4A at colonic chromatin
Plasticity among cell lineages is a fundamental, but poorly understood, property of regenerative tissues. In the gut tube, the small intestine...

Single-cell transcriptomics uncovers EGFR signaling-mediated gastric progenitor cell differentiation in stomach homeostasis
Defects in gastric progenitor cell differentiation are associated with various gastric disorders, including atrophic gastritis, intestinal...
