Evidence that nucleocytoplasmic Olig2 translocation mediates brain‐injury‐induced differentiation of glial precursors to astrocytes
17 May 2007
Abstract excerpt
The mechanisms by which neural and glial progenitor cells in the adult brain respond to tissue injury are unknown. We studied the responses of these cells to stab wound injury in rats and in two transgenic mouse models in which Y/GFP is driven either by Sox2 (a neural stem cell marker) or by Talpha-1 (which marks newly born neurons). The response of neural progenitors was low in all nonneurogenic regions, and no...
