Role of Obesity and Aging on Intestinal Stem Cell Function

Abstract: Changes of somatic stem cell (SSC) functionality has been proposed to contribute to tissue and organismal aging. Because the effects of diet and aging on SSC function can impact organ senescence and longevity, the need to determine the differences between young and old SSC in vivo and elucidating general principles of how SSC respond to diet and aging signals are critically important for many aspects of aging and regenerative biology. However, we have a limited understanding of how SSCs change with age and und… Show more
