Wnt signaling plays important roles in stem cell self-renewal and differentiation in adults as well as in embryonic development. Mutations that activate canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling also initiate and maintain several cancer states, in...
Steroid Hormones and the Physiological Regulation of Tissue-Resident Stem Cells: Lessons from the Drosophila Ovary [0.03%]
类固醇激素与组织驻留干细胞生理调节的作用——来自果蝇卵巢的启示
Elizabeth T Ables,Daniela Drummond-Barbosa
Elizabeth T Ables
Purpose of review: Stem cells respond to local paracrine signals; more recently, however, systemic hormones have also emerged as key regulators of stem cells. This review explores the role of steroid hormones in stem cell...
