In drosophila, the somatic cells of the hub are able to regulate stem cell proliferation by secreting the paracrine factor Unpaired onto the cells attached to them. Unpaired activates the JAK-STAT pathway in the adjacent germ stem cells to specify their self-renewal. Those cells that are distant from the paracrine factor cannot receive this signal, they begin their differentiation into the sperm cell lineage. This means hub cells act as

#Unit 5. Developmental Biology
  1. Stem cell niches allow controlled self-renewal and also survival of the cells that leave the niche.
  2. Stem cell niches not allow controlled self-renewal but allow survival of the cells that leave the niche.
  3. Stem cell niches allow uncontrolled self-renewal and also division of the cells that leave the niche.
  4. Stem cell niches allow controlled self-renewal and regulate the ratio of cell division to differentiation.
