Notch-Dependent Pituitary SOX2+ Stem Cells Exhibit a Timed Functional Extinction in Regulation of the Postnatal Gland

Although SOX2+ stem cells are present in the postnatal pituitary gland, how they are regulated molecularly and whether they are required for pituitary functions remain unresolved questions. Using a conditional knockout animal model, here we demonstrate that ablation of the canonical Notch signaling...
