Abstract

In this issue of Cell Stem Cell,Larsen et al. (2021) reveal the molecular machinery that empowers epidermal stem cells to remember. They find that STAT3 and AP1 family establish memory, enabling JUN to remain on the open chromatin and allowing fast recruitment of FOS in case of a second attack.
