## Abstract Characterization and identification of peptides with bioactivity from food have received considerable interest recently since such bioactive components must be adequately documented if they are part of functional food claims. We have characterized peptides from colostrum or those genera
## Abstract The restriction of Paneth cell formation to the top of the Paneth cell distribution in the adult was suggested to be due either to the existence of a stem‐cell zone or to the influence of a Paneth cell population‐density gradient (Bjerkness and Cheng, 1981). To distinguish between the t
## Abstract Here, we exploit an absolute differential between stem and progeny cells in their ability to express Cre from a somatically inducible transgene to determine the longevity of intestinal Paneth cells. In the Ah__cre__ transgenic line induction of Cre recombinase allows constitutive activa
