## TL;DR

Intestinal stem cells detect bacterial ADP-heptose, triggering epithelial regeneration through Paneth cell dedifferentiation.

## Contribution

Discovers a novel mechanism where bacterial ADP-heptose activates intestinal stem cells for tissue repair.

## Key findings

- Bacterial ADP-heptose is sensed by intestinal stem cells.
- Paneth cell dedifferentiation supports epithelial regeneration.
- This mechanism offers new insights into gut repair processes.
