Lineage tracing of pancreatic exocrine cell plasticity Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Cell lineage tracing is an important tool to provide direct evidence for the origin and fate of cells. Using this tool, cells can be indelibly labelled to identify their progeny during normal development as well as under various experimental conditions. Therefore, lineage tracing allows for a better characterization of progenitor cells. Improvement of this fundamental knowledge could help to find new sources of replacement tissues to treat ...
