The adult Drosophila posterior midgut is maintained by pluripotent stem cells

Article Abstract:

The lineage labelling is used to show that adult Drosophila posterior midgut cells are continuously replenished by a distinctive population of intestinal stem cells (ISCs). The identification of Drosophila intestinal stem cells with striking similarities to their vertebrate counterparts helps in the analysis of normal and abnormal intestinal function.

Differentiating germ cells can revert into functional stem cell in Drosophila melanogaster ovaries

Article Abstract:

The property of four and eight-cell, generated in the second instar larval ovaries or in adults, Drosophila to convert into a single stem-like cell, is described. The results of the study reveal that Drosophila cystocytes provide a system for studying de-differentiation and its potentials as a source of functional stem cells.

Germline stem cells and follicular renewal in the postnatal mammalian ovary

Article Abstract:

The existence of proliferative germ cells that sustain oocyte and follicle production in the postnatal mammalian ovary is explored. Cells that express the meiotic entry marker synaptonemal complex protein 3 in juvenile and adult mouse ovaries are demonstrated.
