This study shows that luminal epithelium, not glandular cells, drives endometrial regeneration during menstruation and pregnancy in mice, revealing a unifying mechanism for tissue repair.

This study shows that transplanting endometrial organoids restores fertility and reveals luminal-to-glandular epithelial plasticity in the adult endometrium.

The paper induces menstruation in mice to study endometrial shedding regulation, revealing a new paradigm for spatially regulated fibroblast differentiation.

The paper identifies five discrete metabolic domains in the mouse and human small intestine using transcriptional signatures and machine learning, showing how diet influences domain properties.
