May 2017 in “Cell metabolism” This study found that glycolysis in Paneth cells provides lactate to support mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in intestinal stem cells, aiding their function and differentiation.
11 citations
,
July 2016 in “Current Opinion in Cell Biology” This review discusses stem cell behavior, highlighting their plasticity in tissue repair and the impact of somatic mutations on clonal expansion in early cancer, but reports no new experimental results.
146 citations
,
June 2012 in “PLoS ONE” This study observed that quiescent label-retaining cells in the intestine, identified by Paneth cell markers, can switch to a proliferative state and activate Bmi1 expression during tissue injury, contributing to tissue regeneration.
20 citations
,
January 2019 in “Journal of dermatological science” This study suggests that androgens enhance growth factor production in dermal fibroblasts, which in turn may alter keratinocyte differentiation and contribute to acne lesion formation.

November 2013 in “Nature” This study found that differentiated airway epithelial cells can revert into functional stem cells in vivo, suggesting a more general role for this dedifferentiation process in tissue regeneration in higher vertebrates.
