High-fat diet influences intestinal stem cell biology
Nature.com
A high-fat diet (HFD) can influence intestinal stem cell (ISC) biology and tumorigenesis, according to new experimental data. The findings provide possible underlying mechanisms to the cellular origins of dysplasia in HFD-induced obesity. “Over the
