Recent lineage tracing studies from progenitor, precursor, and differentiated cells in response to damage. Large tan wedge, Paneth cell; narrow blue wedge, CBC; white rectangle, þ4 and above; red rectangle, mobilized cell. Lineage tracing was not used in this study by Jadhav et al. Upon DT-mediated Lgr5þ cell ablation, these cells transition to a more Lgr5þ ISC Q20 identity. Lineage tracing also occurs without damage (Yan et al4). EEC, enteroendocrine cell; LRC, label-retaining cell; PC, Paneth cell
