DLX-2, MASH-1, and MAP-2 expression and bromodeoxyuridine incorporation define molecularly distinct cell populations in the embryonic mouse forebrain

Recently, the Dlx family of homeobox genes have been identified as
candidates for regulating patterning and differentiation of the forebrain.
We have made a polyclonal antiserum to the protein product of the Dlx-2
gene. Using this antiserum, we have characterized the spatial and temporal
pattern of DLX-2 protein expression during murine development and in the
adult mouse brain. These studies demonstrate that, like the mRNA from the
Dlx-2 gene, DLX-2 protein is expressed in mouse embryonic forebrain, limbs,
tail, genital tubercle, and branchial arches. Within the embryonic
forebrain, DLX-2 protein is expressed within specific transverse and
longitudinal domains. Analysis of expression within the wall of the
forebrain shows that DLX-2 is expressed in proliferative regions including
the ventricular and subventricular zones. DLX-2 is expressed in the same
cells as MASH-1, a marker of relatively undifferentiated cells, but in a
reciprocal fashion to MAP-2, a marker of terminal neuronal differentiation.
A number of DLX-2-expressing cells, but not all, can be labeled with
bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU). Using the patterns of DLX-2, MASH-1, MAP-2
expression, and bromodeoxyuridine incorporation, we identify four
molecularly distinct populations of cells that may correspond to different
stages of neuronal differentiation in the mouse basal forebrain, in which
DLX-2 is expressed at the transition from proliferation to terminal
differentiation.
