Krt5+/Krt15+ foregut basal progenitors give rise to cyclooxygenase-2-dependent tumours in response to gastric acid stress
Cellular extrinsic environmental factors contribute to tumour development. Here, the authors show that gastric acid stress stimulates tumour formation from a defined tumour-competent Krt5 + /Krt15 + foregut basal progenitor cell population.
