Furutachi et al. identified a slowly dividing subpopulation of embryonic progenitors that later gives rise to most adult neural stem cells (NSCs) in the subependymal zone. Moreover, they found that p57 is responsible for the slow cell cycle of this embryonic population and acts causally in the emergence of adult NSCs.
