  • A new role for an old friend: NFAT and stem cell quiescence.

    Oro AE, Cell Stem Cell. 2008; 2 (2): 104-6

    NFAT proteins are calcium-regulated transcription factors that play a critical role during the timing and activation of many vertebrate tissues. A recent paper in Cell (Horsley et al., 2008) demonstrates a role of the calcineurin-NFAT-CDK4 pathway in maintaining hair follicle stem cell quiescence.
