Rapid expansion of intestinal secretory lineages following a massive small bowel resection in mice

In brief

This study investigates the cellular mechanisms driving intestinal adaptation after massive small bowel resection in a mouse model. Findings reveal rapid expansion of secretory cell lineages in the early post-resection period, providing insights into how the remaining intestine compensates for lost absorptive surface area—critical knowledge for managing short bowel syndrome.
