Cell lineage distribution atlas reveals heterogeneous gland populations in the gastric antrum - a podcast by BMJ Group

The glands of the stomach body and antral mucosa contain a complex compendium of cell lineages. In lower mammals, the distribution of oxyntic glandsand antral glands define the anatomical regions within the stomach.

Now a paper in Gut has examined in detail the distribution of the full range of cell lineages within the human stomach. Mairi McLean talks to authors James Goldenring, Eunyoung Choi and Joseph Roland, all Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, Tennessee.Read the full paper:
