| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We did random labeling of fluorescence into the organoid cells by original method. We then found single fluorescence-labeled cell in crypt and isolated it. The organoids could be generated from single fluorescence cell, indicating that single fluorescence cell might be intestinal stem cell. We could therefore observe the cell division of single fluorescence stem cell and lineage tracing of differentiated cell in three dimensions. Moreover, we evaluated the role between stem cells for the formation of one villus by analyzing the mutual relations with the fluorescence-negative stem cell and fluorescence stem cell. In addition, we started the evaluation of single stem cell using human intestinal organoids to estimate the regulation of single stem cell derived from the patients.
