To read the full abstract: Science. 2017; 357(6346)Current textbooks teach that adrenergic chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla originate from a sympathoadrenal cell lineage of the neural crest nearby the dorsal aorta. Here, Furlan et al. demonstrate a novel origin of these neuroendocrine cells of the medulla arising predominantly from Schwamm cell precursors (SCP) of peripheral nerves. Prev...
