Abstract

The differences between fetal and adult intestinal stem cells are unclear, and understanding this relationship could present novel therapeutic opportunities. Fordham et al. (2013) and Mustata et al. (2013) report a potential source of transplantable epithelial cells from fetal gut that can convert into adult intestinal stem and differentiated cells.
