Large and fast excitatory transcriptomic neuron types in human cortex preferentially express genes of intelligence and HARs.

2022-11-14

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Human intelligence is a highly heritable trait, and GWAS have yielded numerous associated genes. These genes overlap with human accelerated regions (HARs) implicated in human brain evolution and might act on the same biological processes. Here, we investigated whether genes associated with human cognition and HAR genes are similarly expressed in adult human cortical neurons and brain ar...
