Abstract

Fu et al. show that the transcriptional repressor Foxp1 is crucial for governing the exit of mammary stem cells from quiescence. Moreover, Tspan8 was identified as a direct Foxp1 target that plays a functional role in regulating the stem cell state, and its deletion reversed the effects of Foxp1 loss.
