- Description
- Large pools of epithelial and interstitial stem cells define the well-known features of Hydra polyps such as their enormous capacity for regeneration, permanent growth and longevity. Multi-functional epithelial stem cells also shape Hydra’s body and regulate transport of ions, molecules and water. Two topics will be discussed: (1) the role of Myc factors in self renewal and differentiation, and (2) the role of Claudin cell contact proteins in epithelial integrity and regeneration.
