Adaptive Evolution of Gene Regulatory Networks in Mammalian Neocortical Neurons

The paper identifies mammalian-specific gene regulatory elements and their role in neocortical neuron subtype diversity and connectivity, linking them to neurodevelopmental disorders.

Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 is critical for mouse cortical glutamatergic neuron development

This study investigates the role of PRC2 in mouse cortical development, finding that homozygous mutations lead to structural and neuronal dysregulation, while heterozygous mutations show distinct effects.

LINE-1 retrotransposon activation intrinsic to interneuron development

The paper shows that SOX6 activates LINE-1 retrotransposons in PV+ interneurons, leading to increased morphological complexity through a novel CAPS2 isoform.

The DCC receptor regulates astroglial development essential for telencephalic morphogenesis and corpus callosum formation

This study shows that DCC and NTN1 regulate astroglial development and interhemispheric fissure remodeling, essential for corpus callosum and hippocampal commissure formation.
