The phrase "adjacent niche" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe a niche that is next to or closely related to another niche, often in contexts like marketing, ecology, or business.
Example: "The adjacent niche of eco-friendly products has seen significant growth in recent years, attracting a new customer base."
Alternatives: "neighboring niche" or "related niche".
Cells of the dorsal vessel immediately adjacent to the niche express Antp (by both criteria), although we found no difference in its expression between heterozygous and mutant glands (supplementary material Fig. S7A,B,D,E; asterisks).
Anatomically, there are two key HSC niches within the bone marrow; the endosteal niche, located adjacent to the bone surface, and the perivascular niche, located centrally within the bone marrow proximal to blood vessels.
Since increased pCREB may be an essential step in the up-regulation of progenitor mitosis [32], it is interesting that this occurred not just in the cells adjacent to the neurogenetic niche in the inner layer, but throughout the dentate gyrus.
A minimalist view is that the DTC membrane presenting Notch ligands to adjacent GSCs defines the niche.
The dermal papilla is a cluster of specialized mesenchymal cells that rests adjacent to the bulge niche during the resting phase of the hair cycle, but moves downward with the committed proliferative progenitors following transition to the growing phase.
SCs were visualized using an MM protocol (Lindstrom and Thornell 2009) or by double labelling of a single SC marker (NCAM, Pax7, MyoD, myogenin, c-Met or Dlk1) in combination with staining for the basal lamina (laminin or laminin alpha 2 chain) or the myofibre plasma membrane (dystrophin) to discriminate between cells in the SC niche from adjacent cells and myonuclei.
Short-range BMP-signalling induces elevated levels of a group of proteins in stem cells adjacent to cap cells at the niche interface.
Predicted niche overlap usually occurred between adjacent coastal subspecies and only once between coastal and inland subspecies (see P. p. albifrons and P. p. sumneri, Figure 5F-G).
In both invertebrates and vertebrates, signals from adjacent somatic cells - called the GSC niche - initiate GSC self-renewal programmes (Kimble, 2011; Lehmann, 2012).
