Epithelial argininosuccinate synthetase is dispensable for intestinal regeneration and tumorigenesis

Abstract The epithelial signaling pathways involved in damage and regeneration, and neoplastic transformation are known to be similar. We noted upregulation of argininosuccinate synthetase (ASS1) in hyperproliferative intestinal epithelium. Since ASS1 leads to de novo synthesis of arginine, an impor...
