A major unsolved question in cortical development is how proliferation, neurogenesis, regional growth, regional identity, and laminar fate specification are coordinated. Here we provide evidence, using loss-of-function and gain-of-function manipulations, that the COUP-TFI orphan nuclear receptor promotes ventral cortical fate, promotes cell cycle exit and neural differentiation, regulates the balance of early- and late-born neurons, and regulates the balanced production of different types of layer V cortical projection neurons. We suggest that COUP-TFI controls these processes by repressing Mapk/Erk, Akt, and beta-catenin signaling.
皮质发育中一个主要的未解决问题是增殖、神经发生、区域生长、区域特性以及层命运特化是如何协调的。在这里,我们通过功能缺失和功能获得操作提供证据,表明COUP-TFI孤儿核受体促进腹侧皮质命运,促进细胞周期退出和神经分化,调节早出生和晚出生神经元的平衡,并调节不同类型的V层皮质投射神经元的平衡产生。我们认为,COUP-TFI通过抑制Mapk/Erk、Akt和β-连环蛋白信号传导来控制这些过程。
