BACKGROUND: The oligodendrocyte transcription factors 1 and 2 (OLIG1 and OLIG2, respectively) make up part of basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family of transcription factors that are specifically expressed in zones of the neuroepithelium from which oligodendrocyte precursors emerge (1) . Both OLIG1 and OLIG2 genes are downstream targets of Sonic hedgehog and are expressed exclusively in the central nervous system (2) . OLIG1 is first expressed in the dorsal portion of the p3 progenitor domain of the ventral neural tube while OLIG2 is first observed in the ventral most p3 domain (2) . OLIG1 has been shown to be a SMAD cofactor involved in cell motility induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) (3) .
