Sox10 and Olig2 expression indicated neural crest and oligodendrocyte potential at G15 and G16. (A) tSox10 was expressed in the neuroepithelial cells in the neural tube at G15+. (B) A paraffin section of G16 neural tube showed tSox10 expression in the dorsal and ventral neuroepithelial cells and in the migratory oligodendrocyte progenitor cells in the grey matter in the ventral neural tube. (C) Anti-Olig2 antibody positive oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) in their initial domain in the ventral neuroepithelial cells at G15. (D) At G16, OPCs have begun to migrate ventrally. (E) At G17, few OPCs were also seen dorsally. Scale bars approx. 200 μm (A), 100 μm (B–E).
