High impact information on Chx10

  • Ectopic Chx10 expression drove bipolar instead of rod cell differentiation without affecting division [1].
  • Chx10 is required to block photoreceptor differentiation but is dispensable for progenitor proliferation in the postnatal retina [1].
  • In the Chx10-null ocular retardation (or(J)) mouse, retinal progenitor cell (RPC) proliferation is impaired, and bipolar neurons, a late born cell type, fail to differentiate [1].
  • GF-activated CB epithelial cells co-express the retinal progenitor homeodomain transcription factors Pax6 and Chx10 [2].
