The origin and specification of cortical interneurons
Abstract
GABA-containing interneurons are crucial to both the development and function of the cerebral cortex. Unlike cortical projection neurons, which have a relatively conserved set of characteristics, interneurons include multiple phenotypes that vary on morphological, physiological and neurochemical axes. This diversity, and the relatively late, context-dependent maturation of defining features, has challenged efforts to uncover the transcriptional control of cortical interneuron development. Here, we discuss recent data that are beginning to illuminate the origins and specification of distinct subgroups of cortical interneurons.

“In contrast, Martinotti cells and 5-HT3AR-lacking O-LM cells arise from MGE progenitors with specification driven by the homeodomain transcription factor Nkx2.1 (10% of MGE-derived hippocampal interneurons based on assumptions outlined above combined with the fact that O-LMs represent 40% of SST interneurons) (102, 203, 651, 794, 1042, 1134, 1138, 1213).”

“In particular, it has been suggested that, in contrast to the rodent neocortex, where inhibitory neurons are primarily derived from ventral sources (Anderson et al., 1997; Wonders and Anderson, 2006), the primate neocortex utilizes an additional dorsal source of inhibitory neuron progenitor cells to proportionately ba…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
