Intestinal stem cells count self-renewal divisions to switch multipotency

Nature, Published online: 29 July 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10814-y

In Drosophila, cell fate switching in adult intestinal stem cells is determined through an epigenetic mechanism in which these cells count divisions, switching from producing enterocytes to producing an enteroendocrine mother cell every ninth division.

Flowing zinc slurry for long-duration energy storage

Nature Energy, Published online: 24 June 2026; doi:10.1038/s41560-026-02091-w

Aqueous Zn batteries are attractive for low-cost and safe energy storage, yet their practical use is hindered by limited reversibility. Here the authors report a ligand-confined, flowable Zn slurry that enables durable and efficient operation.
