Embryonic cortical neural stem cells apparently have a transient existence, as they do not persist in the adult cortex. We sought to determine the fate of embryonic cortical stem cells by following Emx1IREScre; LacZ/EGFP double-transgenic murine cells from midgestation into adulthood. Lineage tracing in combination with direct cell labeling and time-lapse video microscopy demonstrated that Emx1-lineage embryonic cortical stem cells migrate ventrally into the striatal germinal zone (GZ) perinatally and intermingle with striatal stem cells. Upon integration into the striatal GZ, cortical stem cells down-regulate Emx1 and up-regulate Dlx2, which is a homeobox gene characteristic of the developing striatum and striatal neural stem cells. This demonstrates the existence of a novel dorsal-to-ventral migration of neural stem cells in the perinatal forebrain.

AbstractWith the aim of developing a sensor for chromosome loss in vivo, we used the well-established GAL4/GAL80 system combined with a visual GFP marker in Drosophila. We show a low frequency of green cells in most Drosophila tissues, suggesting low aneuploidy levels. Unexpectedly, in the brain, GFP positive cells are more frequent, but in this case, they do not represent chromosome loss. Using genetic manipulations, RNA FISH and time-lapse microscopy, we uncovered a dynamic and reversible silencing of GAL80 that occurs in Drosophila neural stem cells. Further, we showed that this novel gene expression regulation is influenced by environmental changes such as temperature variations or food composition. These results have important implications for the Drosophila community, namely the possible interpretation of false positive cells in clonal experiments. Additionally, they also highlight a level of mosaicism and plasticity in the brain, consistent with possible epigenetic regulation of fly chromosomes, which is different from other organs and tissues.
