Areal specialization of pyramidal cell structure in the visual cortex of the tree shrew: a new twist revealed in the evolution of cortical circuitry.

Experimental brain research - 1 May 2005

Elston Guy N, Elston Alejandra, Casagrande Vivien, Kaas Jon H

Abstract excerpt

Cortical pyramidal cells, while having a characteristic morphology, show marked phenotypic variation in primates. Differences have been reported in their size, branching structure and spine density between cortical areas. In particular, there is a systematic increase in the complexity of the stru...
