Figure 8

Opossum and mouse cortico-cerebral histogenesis: a comparison. (A) Radial distribution and approximate temporal generation windows of neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes in the opossum and mouse cerebral cortex. (B) Peak generation times for primordial plexiform layer, deep cortical plate and superficial cortical plate in opossum and mouse. (C) Temporal profile of interneurons spreading in the developing cerebral cortex of opossum and mouse. Abbreviations: I, II-VI refer to cortical layers; cp, cortical plate; e, ependyma; ppl, primordial plexiform layer; se, subependymal zone; wm, white matter.
