TLDR
It is proposed that the majority of primate neocortical GABAergic interneurons originate from ganglionic eminences of the ventral telencephalon, and this work reveals that the mammalian neocortex shares basic rules for interneuron development, substantially reshaping the understanding of the origin and classification ofPrimate neocortex.
Abstract
In primates, the developmental origin of neocortical interneurons is controversial. Here the authors map out expression patterns of key transcription factors in the developing human and monkey brain and reveal that, just as in rodents, the majority of cortical GABAergic neurons originate from the ganglionic eminences.

Using organoids to study human brain development and evolution.

TL;DR: A review of the potential of cerebral organoids to model and study human brain development and evolution can be found in this article, where the authors discuss the progress and current challenges in their use for reproducing specific human neurodevelopmental processes.

Seeking clues in brain development to explain the extraordinary evolution of language in humans

TL;DR: In this review, four areas of development predicted to be of importance are explored, including an increase in size and gyrification of the cerebral cortex, increased connectivity between functional areas of the cortex, an expanded role for the subplate in guiding this process, and changes in synapse formation.

Vascular-Derived SPARC and SerpinE1 Regulate Interneuron Tangential Migration and Accelerate Functional Maturation of Human Stem Cell-Derived Interneurons

TL;DR: Two endothelial cell-derived paracrine factors are identified that enhance interneuron migration in mouse MGE explants and organotypic cultures and suggest a critical role for CNS vasculature in regulating interneurons developmental maturation in both mice and humans.

Model of autism: increased ratio of excitation/inhibition in key neural systems

TL;DR: In this paper, a model that postulates that some forms of autism are caused by an increased ratio of excitation/inhibition in sensory, mnemonic, social and emotional systems is proposed.

Cortical inhibitory neurons and schizophrenia

TL;DR: Convergent findings indicate that a deficiency in signalling through the TrkB neurotrophin receptor leads to reduced GABA synthesis in the parvalbumin-containing subpopulation of inhibitory GABA neurons in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex of individuals with schizophrenia.

Spatio-temporal transcriptome of the human brain

TL;DR: The generation and analysis of exon-level transcriptome and associated genotyping data, representing males and females of different ethnicities, from multiple brain regions and neocortical areas of developing and adult post-mortem human brains, finds that 86 per cent of the genes analysed were expressed, and that 90 per cent were differentially regulated at the whole-transcript or exon level acrossbrain regions and/or time.

Three groups of interneurons account for nearly 100% of neocortical GABAergic neurons

TL;DR: The universal modulation of these neurons by serotonin and acetylcholine via ionotropic receptors suggests that they might be involved in shaping cortical circuits during specific brain states andbehavioral contexts.

Neurogenic radial glia in the outer subventricular zone of human neocortex

TL;DR: This work finds that OSVZ radial glia-like cells have a long basal process but, surprisingly, are non-epithelial as they lack contact with the ventricular surface, and demonstrates that these cells can undergo proliferative divisions and self-renewing asymmetric divisions to generate neuronal progenitor cells that can proliferate further.
