    Heterozygous deletion of Otx2, Vax1, or Six3 is sufficient to produce subfertility. Review shows that that all 3 have reduced numbers of GnRH neurons and are subfertile. However, there is specificity to the subfertility by sex and by mechanisms of action.

    Here, we show that initiation of ocular dominance plasticity was impaired with reduced CS, using mice lacking a key CS-synthesizing enzyme, CSGalNAcT1. Two-photon in vivo imaging showed a weaker visual response of PV-cells with reduced CS compared to wild-type mice. Plasticity onset was restored by a homeoprotein Otx2, which binds the major CS-proteoglycan aggrecan and promotes its further expression.

    data demonstrate that OTX2 functions repressively upstream of primordial germ cell transcription factors, acting as a roadblock to limit entry of epiblast cells to the germline to a small window in space and time, thereby ensuring correct numerical segregation of germline cells from the soma

    In adult and aged tau(+/+), tau(+/-), tau(-/-) mice tau deficiency could not induce significant motor disorders. However, found lower expression levels of transcription factors Orthodenticle homeobox 2 (OTX2) of midbrain dopaminergic neurons in older aged mice. Results suggested that tau deficiency alone might not be enough to mimic the pathology of Parkinson's disease.

    These results suggest that tau haploinsufficiency, without the compensation effect of MAP1A, induces reduction of Otx2 expression, increases prenatal cell death, and accordingly leads to selective loss of VTA DA neurons in the early postnatal stage.

    Tau haploinsufficiency causes prenatal loss of dopaminergic neurons in the ventral tegmental area and reduction of transcription factor orthodenticle homeobox 2 expression.
