Transcriptome analysis of mesenchymal stromal cells of the large and small intestinal smooth muscle layers reveals a unique gastrontestinal stromal signature

Mesenchymal stromal cells in the muscle layer of the large intestine are essential for the regulation of intestinal motility. They form electrogenic syncytia with the smooth muscle and interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) to regulate smooth muscle contraction. Mesenchymal stromal cells are present in...
