Where this comes from

Abstract

Fetal human brain stem cell niches that contain multipotent neural progenitors are progressively vascularized during development. Crouch et al. (Crouch et al., 2022) report endothelial and mural lineage trajectories that build developing prenatal vascular in second trimester fetal brain. This cerebral angiogenesis in neural progenitor zones occurs simultaneously with and can promote neurogenesis.
