Esophageal progenitor cell plasticity; a 3D organotypic model of epithelial regeneration [scATAC-seq]
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Epithelial stem cells are capable of remarkable plasticity, facilitating efficient regenerative responses following damage. Here, we present a versatile model of ectopic niche regeneration that provides evidence of a switch in epithelial stem cell identity as a response to foreign microenvironmental signals. A combination of 3D organotypic cultures, 3D confocal imaging and Next-Generation Sequencing reveal events of epithelial plasticity during the reepithelialization of denuded stroma. In this study we provide new insights on the mechanisms driving cell fate flexibility in adult epithelial stem cells.
