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/...

Commensal glycolipid structure shapes gut immunity Nature Reviews Microbiology, Published online: 12 August 2025; doi:10.1038/s41579-025-01232-4New research by Cho et al. shows that structural variations in a glycolipid present on Gram-negative bacteria can modulate gut inflammatory responses.
