The role of cell location and spatial gradients in the evolutionary dynamics of colon and intestinal crypts
BACKGROUND: Colon and intestinal crypts serve as an important model system for adult stem cell proliferation and differentiation. We develop a spatial stochastic model to study the rate of somatic evolution in a normal crypt, focusing on the production of two-hit mutants that inactivate a tumor supp...
