title: The satellite cell builds its nest under Notch's guidance.
abstract: Recently in Developmental Cell, Bröhl et al. (2012) reported that Notch regulates muscle stem cell homing to its niche. Notch is required when myogenic cells cease producing new fibers and become sequestered between a newly forming basement membrane and the muscle fiber surface: the position that defines them as satellite cells.
