Ki-67 proliferative index (PI) scoring is measured by estimating the proportion of the number of active cell nuclei in hotspot regions within immunohistochemical (IHC) stained slides. It provides valuable information about the rate of proliferation in a tumour. Manual scoring of Ki-67 PI is laborious, time-consuming and often the victim of interobserver variability between pathologists.

This analysis demonstrates reclassification and incorporation of new gene mutations in the present model can further improve and individualize prognostication.

We investigated the consequences of inflammation on Lgr5 ISCs in well-defined clinically relevant models of acute gastrointestinal graft-versus-host disease (GI GVHD). Utilizing single-cell transcriptomics, as well as organoid, metabolic, epigenomic, and in vivo models, we found that Lgr5 ISCs undergo metabolic changes that lead to the accumulation of succinate, which reprograms their epigenome.
