Abstract
Neural precursor cells (NPCs) reside in the subventricular zone in association with blood vessels and ependymal cells. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Kokovay et al. (2010) show that SDF1 directs the association of NPCs with this niche and regulates their lineage progression in a stage-specific manner.
