Gli1 expressing neural stem cells, in the subventricular zone of the adult mammalian brain, respond to demyelination injury by differentiating into oligodendrocytes. We have identified Gpnmb as a novel regulator of oligodendrogenesis in Gli1 neural stem cells, whose expression is induced by TGF{beta}1 signaling via Gli1, in response to a demyelinating injury. Upregulation of Gpnmb further activates the TGF{beta}1 pathway by increasing the expression of the TGF{beta}1 binding receptor subunit, TGF{beta}R2. Thus the TGF{beta}1[->]Gli1[->]Gpnmb[->]TGF{beta}R2 signaling pathway forms a feed forward loop for sustained activation of TGF{beta}1 signaling in Gli1 neural stem cells, resulting in inhibition of their differentiation into mature oligodendrocytes following demyelination.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
