Zfhx1b expression in the SVZ of the MGE is required for interneuron migration at E15.5. Coronal hemisections of the telencephalon comparing gene expression in three rostral-to-caudal planes of section in control (left side) and Zfhx1b DlxI12b-Cre conditional mutants (right side). In situ hybridization analysis of: Nkx2-1 (A-C’), Lhx6 (D-F’), Sox6 (G-I’), Lhx8 (P-R’), NPY (M-O’), Kcnmb4 (P-R’). Asterisks show increased numbers of labeled cells in the striatum. X shows reduced number of Lhx6+ cells in cortex. Abbreviations: CGE: caudal ganglionic eminence; Cx: cortex; e: ectopia in region of the ventral striatum and central nucleus of the amygdala; GP: globus pallidus; LGE: lateral ganglionic eminence; MGE: medial ganglionic eminence; MZ: mantle zone; Str: striatum; SVZ: subventricular zone; VPd: ventral pallidum; VZ: ventricular zone. Scale bar equals 500μm (A).
