Abstract excerpt
Oligodendrocyte precursors (OLPs) in the developing spinal cord are generated from the same part of the ventral neuroepithelium as motor neurons, by inductive processes that include a temporal switch from neuronal to glial cell fate. Recent studies have implicated Shh as a key signal in the generation of both OLPs and ventral neurons. In this study, we used Shh(-/-), Gli3(-/-), and Shh(-/-);Gli3(-/-) mutants to...
