Expression profile of intestinal stem cell markers in colitis-associated carcinogenesis
Abstract The intestinal epithelium has two distinct two stem cell populations, namely, crypt base columnar (CBC) cells and +4 cells. Several specific markers have been identified for each stem cell population. In this study, we examined the expression profiles of these markers in colitis-associated...
