Epithelial tension controls intestinal cell extrusion Cell extrusion is essential for homeostatic self-renewal of the intestinal epithelium. Extrusion is thought to be triggered by crowding-induced compression of cells at the intestinal villus tip. In th...

1/11 In @science.org: A new perspective on how our intestines renew. Cells are not “pushed out” by crowding or die from apoptosis. Instead, cells play a mechanical tug-of-war, where weaker cells extrude, reframing gut renewal as force-regulated. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Frontiers | Gut microbiota short-chain fatty acids and their impact on the host thyroid function and diseases Thyroid disorders are clinically characterized by alterations of L-3,5,3’,5’-tetraiodothyronine (T4), L-3,5,3’-triiodothyronine (T3), and/or thyroid-stimulat...

I'm happy to share my first review article titled: "Gut microbiota short-chain fatty acids and their impact on the host thyroid function and diseases". www.frontiersin.org/journals/end...
PD: Biorender helped but I'm happy that I'd illustrated the last two figures🖌️
