| Abstract | The transcription factor Pax6 is expressed by progenitors in the ventricular zone (VZ) of dorsal telencephalon (dTel), which generate all cortical glutamatergic neurons, but not by progenitors in the medial ganglionic eminence (MGE), which generate cortical GABAergic interneurons (GABA INs), or the lateral ganglionic eminence (LGE), which generate GABA INs that normally migrate to the olfactory bulb. We show that perinatally, Pax6(sey/sey) mice, which lack functional Pax6 protein, have large subpial ectopias in dTel and ventral telencephalon connected by cell streams arising from an aberrant paraventricular ectopia found throughout dTel. The subpial and paraventricular ectopias and connecting cell streams are comprised of postmitotic neurons expressing markers for GABA INs characteristic of a LGE fate. Marker analyses show that dTel VZ progenitors in Pax6 mutants are progressively ventralized, acquiring expression of regulatory genes normally limited to GE progenitors; by midneurogenesis, the entire dTel VZ exhibits ventralization. This ventralization of the dTel VZ is paralleled by the expression of markers for GABA INs superficial to it, suggesting that it ectopically produces GABA INs, leading to their ectopias and a thinner cortical plate due to diminished production of glutamatergic neurons. Genetic lineage tracing demonstrates that the GABA INs comprising the ectopias are from a cortical Emx1 lineage generated in the dTel VZ, definitively showing that dTel progenitors and progeny acquire a ventral, GE, fate in Pax6 mutants. Thus, Pax6 delimits the appropriate proliferative zone for GABA INs and regulates their numbers and distributions by repressing the ventral fates of dTel progenitors and progeny. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
