A neuronal migratory pathway crossing from diencephalon to telencephalon populates amygdala nuclei

Fernando García-Moreno et al. Nat Neurosci. 2010 Jun.

Abstract

Neurons usually migrate and differentiate in one particular encephalic vesicle. We identified a murine population of diencephalic neurons that colonized the telencephalic amygdaloid complex, migrating along a tangential route that crosses a boundary between developing brain vesicles. The diencephalic transcription factor OTP was necessary for this migratory behavior.
