The illustration shows a small section from the epigenetic landscape for six normal intestinal tissues (blue) as well as five intestinal tumors (red) in mice. Peaks reflect stronger epigenetic ...

As part of the ongoing Human Cell Atlas project, researchers mapped 1.6 million cells in the gastrointestinal tract. Here’s ...

Purdue University scientists isolated it from layers of tissue called small-intestine submucosa, or SIS, after they discovered more than a decade ago that the small intestine possessed unusual healing ...

By using an innovative discovery platform, Curileum is identifying new stem cell therapeutic targets in intestinal mucosal, immune and nerve tissues. Rather than simply treating symptoms ...

They also have a crucial role in tissue engineering. This webinar will explore how we can isolate and expand patient-derived intestinal organoids in culture. By combining these organoids with ...

The goal of medical treatment is to stop the abnormal inflammation so intestinal tissue has a chance to heal. As it does, diarrhea and abdominal pain should ease. Once the symptoms are under ...

Most tissues, also in adults, can renew with the help of the tissue stem cells that reside in them. The activity of tissue stem cells and the pace of tissue renewal varies a lot depending on the ...

A femoral hernia occurs when part of your intestine or abdominal tissue pushes through a weak spot in your lower abdominal ...

Luminal amoebicides (such as paromomycin, diloxanide furoate and iodoquinol) act on organisms in the intestinal lumen, but are ineffective against organisms in tissue. Metronidazole (and other ...
