Description
Kaz Kawamura, Satoko Sekida, and Noriyuki Satoh trace stem-like cells in a stony coral in a 2026 paper. The coral Acropora tenuis holds progenitor cells like other anthozoans. What those cells can become was unknown.
Chemical tags on histone proteins marked the progenitor pool first. Nerve progenitors and undifferentiated cells shared both tag types. That pattern hints the cells can take several fates. An antibody against a reverse transcriptase lit up the same cells. Signals clustered near the mouth pole in larvae. Readers see how a reef-building coral keeps and deploys its reserve cells.
