摘要
Neuronal induction by retinoic acid (RA) is commonly used in embryonic stem (ES) cell differentiation. Two recent papers show that this paradigm induces a population of neurogenic precursors with properties of radial glia. Upon differentiation, RA-treated cells give rise to a defined and developmentally restricted neuronal lineage. This role of RA in cell fate specification provides new perspectives for studying the radial glia-neuron transition and for generating homogenous populations of neurons from ES cells.
