Abstract

The mechanisms controlling the assembly of brain nuclei are poorly understood. In the forebrain, it is typically assumed that the formation of nuclei follows a similar sequence of events that in the cortex. In this structure, projection neurons are generated sequentially from common progenitor cells and migrate radially to reach their final destination, whereas interneurons are generated remotely and arrive to the cortex through tangential migration. Using the globus pallidus as a model to study the formation of forebrain nuclei, we found that the development of this basal ganglia structure involves the generation of several distinct classes of projection neurons from relatively distant progenitor pools, which then assemble together through tangential migration. Our results thus suggest that tangential migration in the forebrain is not limited to interneurons, as previously thought, but also involves projection neurons and reveal that the assembly of forebrain nuclei is more complex than previously anticipated.

  • Generation of cortical interneurons is largely limited to the dorsal and intermediate MGE domains, while the ventrocaudal domain specializes in producing PV+ projection neurons for the globus pallidus.

  • Lhx8-Cre fate mapping suggested that these neurons account for the majority, if not all, of cholinergic projection and interneuron populations in the nucleus basalis, medial septum, and striatum, and the majority of Pvalb-positive projection neurons in the globus pallidus.

    “Genetic ‘fate-mapping’ using Lhx8-Cre suggested that these neurons account for the majority, if not all of the cholinergic projection and interneuron populations within the nucleus basalis, medial septum, and striatum, respectively, as well as the majority of Pvalb-positive projection neurons in the globus pallidus5,6”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
