Study: Human TKTL1 implies greater neurogenesis in frontal neocortex of modern humans than Neanderthals. Image Credit: iurii/Shutterstock Background. Intriguingly, a single amino acid substitution ...

The outer region of the cerebral cortex – the neocortex ... Human TKTL1 implies greater neurogenesis in frontal neocortex of modern humans than Neandertals. Article Publication Date.

It remains controversial whether the neocortex harbors progenitors that are capable of neurogenesis in vivo. Here the authors show that there is a population of mitotic cells in cortical layer I ...

A single amino acid change in the transketolase-like 1 (TKTL1) protein may have given modern humans an advantage over more ancient contemporaries like Neanderthals by enabling increased ...

Neurogenesis Debate Continues Recent studies have all but confirmed the occurrence of neurogenesis in the primate hippocampus, an area involved in short-term memory. But occurrence of neurogenesis in ...

Neurogenesis in the adult brain. ... However, a growing number of recent studies describe the generation of new neurons also in the adult neocortex. Although small in both number and size, ...

your neocortex can develop new neurons in adulthood. In 1999, contrary to previous theories, scientists were surprised to discover that the adult neocortex can in fact experience neurogenesis ...

Whether adult neurogenesis also occurs in the neocortex is the next big question... Guo F, Maeda Y, Ma J, Xu J, Horiuchi M, Miers L, Vaccarino F, & Pleasure D (2010). Pyramidal neurons are generated ...

Adult Neurogenesis Newly Adult-born Neurons Are Functionally Similar To Mature Neurons ... When they stimulated the excitatory inputs carrying information from the neocortex to the hippocampus, ...

The right brain hemisphere shows a sustained, primate-like Pax6 expression pattern in the neocortex of a double transgenic mouse embryo. These animals have more Pax6-positive progenitor cells and a ...
