Intestinal tuft cells divide to make new cells when immunological cues trigger them. Additionally, in contrast to progenitor- and stem cells, tuft cells can survive severe injury such as irradiation ...

Cells on the inner surface of the intestine are replaced every few days. But, how does this work? It was always assumed that cells leave the intestinal surface because excess cells are pushed out. In ...

The human small intestine is an essential organ that helps us absorb nutrients and vitamins from food. It is an average of 6 meters long and is covered with millions of villi that are separated by ...

Using human intestinal organoids, scientists uncovered a previously unknown immune function of M cells. By presenting gluten ...
