Intestine-enriched apolipoprotein b orthologs are required for stem cell progeny differentiation and regeneration in planarians

Lipid metabolism regulates stem cell states and differentiation. Here, the authors demonstrate a requirement in planarians for Apolipoprotein B-mediated neutral lipid transport from intestinal stores to stem cells and their progeny during differentiation and whole-body regeneration.
