Notch signaling regulates the fate of cells in the developing cerebral cortex. Notch signaling has several roles in cell differentiation in the developing
cerebral cortex. The activation of Notch signaling in glial progenitor cells results in the differentiation as astrocytes and inhibits differentiation as
oligodendrocytes (left pathway). Notch signaling also inhibits progenitor cells from differentiating into neurons (right pathway). (Photo on left reproduced,
