Understanding the development and maintenance of dopamine neurons is essential to
establish novel stem cell therapies and animal models of Parkinson's disease. A recent
PLoS Biology report (Kittappa et al., 2007) reveals that Foxa2 regulates dopamine neuron
generation and differentiation, and that aging foxa2+/− mice spontaneously develop
Parkinsonism.
