This study shows that CDC25B regulates G2 phase duration, affecting the balance between direct and indirect neurogenesis in the developing mouse neocortex.

The paper measures cell cycle phases in neural progenitor cells and identifies CDC25B as an indirect regulator of G1 phase lengthening during tissue development.

The paper develops a mathematical model to study fate restriction in neurogenic progenitors of the embryonic ventral spinal cord, showing that CDC25B may play a role in restricting progenitor divisions.

This study shows CDC25B phosphatase regulates neuronal production in the neural tube independently of cell cycle dynamics in chick neural progenitors.

The paper shows FGF signaling is required for ventral oligodendrocyte precursor cell generation alongside Shh, with FGFs also regulating Shh signaling and Olig2 expression.
