Boundary Caps Give Rise to Neurogenic Stem Cells and Terminal Glia in the Skin

While neurogenic stem cells have been identified in rodent and human skin, their manipulation and further characterization are hampered by a lack of specific markers. Here, we perform genetic tracing of the progeny of boundary cap (BC) cells, a neural-crest-derived cell population localized at perip...
