• mice exhibit abnormal brain morphology during embryogenesis that is severe after E15.5
• however, doxycycline-treated mice exhibit improved brain morphology
• mice exhibit an increase in the expression of ventral telencephalic markers throughout the pallium compared with Tg(tetO-Gsx2,-EGFP)1Kcam mice
• after E13.5, mice exposed to doxycycline between E7 and E9 exhibit expansion of the dorsal lateral ganglionic eminence, as determined by marker expression, compared with Tg(tetO-Gsx2,-EGFP)1Kcam mice

N
• size of the neocortex and proliferation of progenitor cells throughout the dorsal telencephalon are restored to normal levels by expression of the mutant protein
• accelerated neuronal differentiation in the neocortical neuroepithelium resulting in a marked increase in the thickness of the mantle
• thickness of the mantle zone in the dorsal telencephalon is increased due to accelerated neuronal differentiation
• dorsomedial telencephalon is abnormal
