Whether neurons generated in vitro from human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) or induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have in vivo-like properties is unknown. In this issue of Neuron, Espuny-Camacho et al. (2013) show that ESC-/iPSC-derived cortical neurons make specific projections and functional synapses when transplanted into a neonatal mouse brain.
CXCL12/CXCR4 signaling is critical for cortical interneuron migration and their final laminar distribution. No information is yet available on CXCR7, a newly defined CXCL12 receptor. Here we demonstrated that CXCR7 regulated interneuron migration autonomously, as well as nonautonomously through its expression in immature projection neurons. Migrating cortical interneurons coexpressed Cxcr4 and Cxcr7,...
