Genetic fate mapping of Olig2 progenitors in the injured adult cerebral cortex reveals preferential differentiation into astrocytes

Abstract: Olig2 is a basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor essential for development of motoneurons and oligodendrocytes. It is known that Olig2(+) cells persist in the central nervous system (CNS) from embryonic to adult stages and that the number of Olig2(+) progenitors increases in the injured adult CNS. Recent studies have demonstrated an inhibitory action of Olig2 on neurogenesis in adult CNS, but the fate of Olig2(+) cells in the injured state remains largely unknown. To trace directly the fate of Oli… Show more

“…These findings suggest that Olig2 expression can promote the extent of OL specification in the injured adult spinal cord as it does during development. Several recent studies have implicated Olig2 in astrocytic differentiation during development and af- ter injury Tatsumi et al, 2008). However, we were unable to identify any significant difference in the proportion of GFAP positive cells by Olig1 or both Olig1 and Olig2 in combination.…”
