Intestinal tuft cells divide to make new cells when immunological cues trigger them. Additionally, in contrast to progenitor- and stem cells, tuft cells can survive severe injury such as irradiation ...
Tuft cells are present throughout the intestinal tract as well as in many organs. Studies in mice have shown that when tuft cells sense the presence of pathogens, they signal to immune cells and to ...
