Research Abstract |
Cells constituting organs in the mammals have cell-type-specific life span after their terminal differentiation. The differences in cellular life span are though to be dependent on cell characteristics and functions. However, the molecular basis underlying the regulation of the life span of terminally differentiated cells is not fully elucidated. Moreover, the biological significance of cell-type-specific life span still remains unclear. To clarify the mechanism of the regulation of cellular life span, we performed approaches using mouse intestinal epithelial cells as a model.
