Funded Activity Summary

Defining signals that regulate intestinal stem cells during organ growth. This project will define the key signals that promote cell division in the stem cells which produce the inner epithelial lining of the gut. This fundamental knowledge is of significance as it will provide information about how key signals are delivered to promote repair of injury to this key cell layer. The gut is a vital organ conserved across species that is prone to injury as it is exposed to a very harsh environment of bacteria and the products of food digestion. The outcomes of this project will provide an understanding of development and regeneration of the epithelial lining and key signals that may augment repair. The future benefits include improved health outcomes for animals and humans and potential economic benefits.
