Embryonic attenuated Wnt/β-catenin signaling defines niche location and long-term stem cell fate in hair follicle

Long-term adult stem cells sustain tissue regeneration throughout the lifetime of an organism. They were hypothesized to originate from embryonic progenitor cells that acquire long-term self-renewal ability and multipotency at the end of organogenesis. The process through which this is achieved ofte...
