Journal ArticleDOI
Single Lgr5 stem cells build crypt-villus structures in vitro without a mesenchymal niche.
Toshiro Sato,Robert G.J. Vries,Hugo J. Snippert,Marc van de Wetering,Nick Barker,Daniel E. Stange,Johan H. van Es,Arie Abo,Pekka Kujala,Peter J. Peters,Hans Clevers +10 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that intestinal cryptvillus units are self-organizing structures, which can be built from a single stem cell in the absence of a non-epithelial cellular niche.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of stem cells in small intestine and colon by marker gene Lgr5
Nick Barker,Johan H. van Es,Jeroen Kuipers,Pekka Kujala,Maaike van den Born,Miranda Cozijnsen,Andrea Haegebarth,Jeroen Korving,Harry Begthel,Peter J. Peters,Hans Clevers +10 more
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
Activation of β-Catenin-Tcf Signaling in Colon Cancer by Mutations in β-Catenin or APC
Patrice J. Morin,Andrew B. Sparks,Vladimir Korinek,Nick Barker,Hans Clevers,Bert Vogelstein,Kenneth W. Kinzler +6 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that regulation of β-catenin is critical to APC's tumor suppressive effect and that this regulation can be circumvented by mutations in either APC or β- catenin.
Journal ArticleDOI
The zebrafish reference genome sequence and its relationship to the human genome.

TL;DR: A high-quality sequence assembly of the zebrafish genome is generated, made up of an overlapping set of completely sequenced large-insert clones that were ordered and oriented using a high-resolution high-density meiotic map, providing a clearer understanding of key genomic features such as a unique repeat content, a scarcity of pseudogenes, an enrichment of zebra fish-specific genes on chromosome 4 and chromosomal regions that influence sex determination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Constitutive Transcriptional Activation by a β-Catenin-Tcf Complex in APC−/− Colon Carcinoma
Vladimir Korinek,Nick Barker,Patrice J. Morin,Dick F. van Wichen,Roel A. de Weger,Kenneth W. Kinzler,Bert Vogelstein,Hans Clevers +7 more
TL;DR: Constitutive transcription of Tcf target genes, caused by loss of APC function, may be a crucial event in the early transformation of colonic epithelium.
