TL;DR: A possible taxonomical solution for classifying GABAergic interneurons of the cerebral cortex based on a novel, web-based interactive system that allows experts to classify neurons with pre-determined criteria is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prolonged myelination in human neocortical evolution
Daniel J. Miller,Tetyana Duka,Cheryl D. Stimpson,Steven J. Schapiro,Wallace B. Baze,Mark J. McArthur,Archibald J. Fobbs,André M. M. Sousa,André M. M. Sousa,Nenad Sestan,Derek E. Wildman,Leonard Lipovich,Christopher W. Kuzawa,Patrick R. Hof,Chet C. Sherwood +14 more
TL;DR: Comparisons between chimpanzees and humans suggest that the human-specific shift in the timing of cortical maturation during adolescence may have implications for vulnerability to certain psychiatric disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic costs and evolutionary implications of human brain development
Christopher W. Kuzawa,Harry T. Chugani,Lawrence I. Grossman,Leonard Lipovich,Otto Muzik,Patrick R. Hof,Derek E. Wildman,Chet C. Sherwood,William R. Leonard,Nicholas Lange +9 more
TL;DR: The finding that human brain glucose demands peak during childhood, and evidence that brain metabolism and body growth rate covary inversely across development, support the hypothesis that the high costs of human brain development require compensatory slowing of body growth rates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular Scaling Rules for the Brains of Marsupials: Not as “Primitive” as Expected
Sandra E. Dos Santos,Jairo Porfirio,Felipe Barros da Cunha,Paul R. Manger,William Corrêa Tavares,Leila Maria Pessôa,Mary Ann Raghanti,Chet C. Sherwood,Suzana Herculano-Houzel +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that Australasian marsupials have diverged from the ancestral Theria neuronal scaling rules, and support the suggestion that the scaling of average neuronal cell size with increasing numbers of neurons varies in evolution independently of the allocation of neurons across structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of increased glia-neuron ratios in the human frontal cortex.
Chet C. Sherwood,Cheryl D. Stimpson,Mary Ann Raghanti,Derek E. Wildman,Monica Uddin,Lawrence I. Grossman,Morris Goodman,John C. Redmond,Christopher J. Bonar,Joseph M. Erwin,Patrick R. Hof +10 more
TL;DR: Analysis of glia–neuron ratios across frontal areas 4, 9L, 32, and 44 in a sample of humans, chimpanzees, and macaque monkeys showed that regions involved in specialized human cognitive functions have not evolved differentially higher requirements for metabolic support.
