Id4 is required for normal ependymal cell development

View through CrossRef
Abstract Ependymal cells are radial glia-derived multiciliated cells lining the lateral ventricles of the brain and spinal cord. Correct development and coordinated cilia beating is essential for proper cerebrospinal fluid flow (CSF) and neurogenesis modulation. Dysfunctions of ependymal cells were associated with transcription factor deregulation. Here we provide evidence that the transcriptional regulator Id4 is involved in ependymal cell development and maturation. We observed that Id4 -deficient mice display altered ependymal cytoarchitecture, decreased ependymal cell number, altered CSF flow and enlarged ventricles. Our findings open the way for a potential role of Id4 in ependymal cell development and/or motor cilia function.
