Here, we ask how developing precursors maintain the balance between cell genesis for tissue growth and establishment of adult stem cell pools, focusing on postnatal forebrain neural precursor cells (NPCs). We show that these NPCs are transcriptionally primed to differentiate and that the primed mRNAs are associated with the translational repressor 4E-T. 4E-T also broadly associates with other NPC mRNAs encoding transcriptional regulators, and these are preferentially depleted from ribosomes, consistent with repression.

The cerebral cortex is the most complex structure in the mammalian brain, whose development requires coordinated proliferation of neural stem/precursor cells (NPCs) and their differentiation into neurons and glia. Perturbations in NPC homeostasis can lead to abnormal cortical development which is frequently seen in neurodevelopmental disorders. In this chapter, we describe the preparation of cortical tissues from mice and step-by-step protocol for immunohistochemistry to study cortical development.
