The paper shows that mesenchymal Asporin mediates fetal-like reprogramming in regenerating intestinal epithelium by modulating Tgfβ signaling through CD44.

This study identifies retrotransposon insertions in colorectal tumors, linking them to cancer initiation and poor patient survival.

This study shows that combining oncogenes with lineage reprogramming can transform human cells into tumorigenic liver-like cells.
