Ontogenetic changes in the projections of neocortical neurons
Open accessAbstract
Development changes in the origins of contra- and ipsilateral projections from the rat parietal cortex were examined using the retrograde transport of horseradish peroxidase and of the fluorescent dyes fast blue and nuclear yellow. The aim of the study was to determine the fate of the neurons which send axons through the corpus callosum in the neonatal, but not the young adult, rat. 1. Neurons which project across the corpus callosum at postnatal day 8 (PND 8), but not at PND 20 or later, do not die; they merely lose their contralateral processes. 2. At PND 8, many of these neurons--in particular, those in lamina Va of the barrel field area--project simultaneously across the corpus callosum and to the ipsilateral motor cortex. 3. By PND 20 and later, many neurons in lamina Va of the barrel field area still project to the ipsilateral motor cortex but not across the corpus callosum. We conclude that at least some neocortical neurons initially elaborate more axonal processes than they will maintain and that they selectively eliminate major projections during development.

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.
