    Ribosome Impairment Regulates Intestinal Stem Cell Identity via ZAKɑ Activation

    Using intestinal organoids and mouse models, scientists showed that upon ribosome impairment, driven by Rptor deletion, amino acid starvation, or low dose cyclohexamide treatment, intestinal stem cells gained an Lgr5-negative, fetal-like identity.

    N6-Adenomethylation of GsdmC Is Essential for Lgr5+ Stem Cell Survival to Maintain Normal Colonic Epithelial Morphogenesis

    Mettl14 ablation triggered apoptosis that depleted Lgr5+ stem cells and disrupted colonic organoid growth and differentiation, whereas the inhibition of apoptosis rescued Mettl14-deleted mice and organoids.
