The fate and degradation of organic matter in aquatic systems is a vital link in nutrient cycling and sedimentation processes influenced by exogenous and endogenous factors, such as inputs from upstream sources, sediment suspension, and the decomposition of aquatic organisms. The interplay of organic carbon, microbes, and environmental factors shapes the distribution and degradation of organic matter. Characterizing the source distribution of sedimentary organic matter in aquatic systems using novel proxies can unravel new insights into the mechanisms that control its dispersal, preservation and fate, which is essential to understanding the global carbon and nitrogen cycles.

Telocytes, a novel mesenchymal cell population, are characterized by their distinctive long and slender projections known as telopodes and have garnered significant interest since their formal introduction to the literature in 2010. These cells have been identified in various tissues, including the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, where they are suggested to play important roles in maintaining structural integrity, immune modulation, and barrier function. Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), which include Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are characterized by chronic inflammation and fibrosis.

Colorectal cancer (CRC), one of the most common tumors in the world, is generally proposed to be generated from intestinal stem cells (ISCs). Leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 5 (Lgr5)-positive ISCs are located at the bottom of the crypt and harbor self-renewal and differentiation capacities, serving as the resource of all intestinal epithelial cells and CRC cells as well. Here we review recent progress in ISCs both in non-tumoral and tumoral contexts.
