STAT3 regulates basal cell identity and morphogenesis during early esophageal development

Secunda W. Kariuki, Yosuke Mitani, Dominique D. Bailey…·Ricardo Cruz‐Acuña

This study shows STAT3 is essential for esophageal progenitor cell development and epithelial morphogenesis in humans, but not in mice.

EPHA2 Regulates SOX2 during Esophageal Development

Tianxia Li, Yosuke Mitani, Ricardo Cruz‐Acuña…·Joel T. Gabre

This study shows that EPHA2 regulates SOX2 expression during human esophageal development using iPSCs and organoids, with EPHA2 inhibition reducing SOX2 levels and organoid formation.
