Three cell groups, neural stem/progenitor cells (NS/PCs) dissociated from the embryonic day 11 (E11) rodent cerebral cortex, expanded NS/PC cultures, and cultured neurons from E15, were used to conduct a genomic study with differential display (DD). The mouse Af1q, homologue of human AF1q, was found to be significantly up-regulated during the neuronal production from NS/PCs. The ectopic expression of human AF1q triggered the expression of the neuronal marker TuJ1 in non-neuronal human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells.
