Colonic epithelium rejuvenation through YAP/TAZ

Abstract

Stem cells are critical for normal tissue homeostasis and injury‐induced regeneration, but how wounding affects tissue regeneration at the cellular and molecular levels is not yet fully understood. A new study by Yui et al (2018) demonstrates that the extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling modulates intestinal stem cells in tissue repair and regeneration via activation of the Hippo pathway effectors YAP/TAZ.
