Hmgb2 improves astrocyte to neuron conversion by increasing the chromatin accessibility of genes associated with neuronal maturation in a proneuronal factor-dependent manner

Abstract Background Direct conversion of reactive glial cells to neurons is a promising avenue for neuronal replacement therapies after brain injury or neurodegeneration. The overexpression of neurogenic fate determinants in glial cells results in conversion to neurons. For repair purposes, the conv...
