Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of stem cells in small intestine and colon by marker gene Lgr5

TL;DR: The expression pattern of Lgr5 suggests that it marks stem cells in multiple adult tissues and cancers, suggesting that it represents the stem cell of the small intestine and colon.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paneth cells constitute the niche for Lgr5 stem cells in intestinal crypts

TL;DR: It is concluded that Lgr5 stem cells compete for essential niche signals provided by a specialized daughter cell, the Paneth cell, in colon crypts, and co-culturing of sorted stem cells with Paneth cells markedly improves organoid formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crypt stem cells as the cells-of-origin of intestinal cancer

TL;DR: It is concluded that stem-cell-specific loss of Apc results in progressively growing neoplasia in long-lived intestinal stem cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intestinal crypt homeostasis results from neutral competition between symmetrically dividing Lgr5 stem cells

TL;DR: Quantitative analysis shows that stem cell turnover follows a pattern of neutral drift dynamics, consistent with a model in which the resident stem cells double their numbers each day and stochastically adopt stem or TA fates.
