Integrin-dependent anchoring of a stem-cell niche.

Nature cell biology - 1 Dec 2007

Tanentzapf Guy, Devenport Danelle, Godt Dorothea, Brown Nicholas H

Abstract excerpt

Interactions between stem cells and their surrounding microenvironment, or niche, are critical for the establishment and maintenance of stem-cell properties. The adult Drosophila testis contains a morphologically discrete stem-cell niche, the 'hub'. The small cluster of non-dividing, somatic hub cells at the anterior tip of the fly testis is contacted by the germline stem cells (GSCs), which retain their...
