          Key Neurons Linked to Autism and Schizophrenia Risk

          Layer 5 pyramidal neurons, crucial for brain information processing, vary significantly in their synaptic protein composition based on neuron type. Research shows that intratelencephalic (IT) neurons and pyramidal tract (PT) neurons share some synaptic proteins but also have unique characteristics influencing their functions.

          Marsupial Brain Development Sheds Light on Human Neurodevelopment

          The early stages of human brain development are mirrored in the brains of marsupials. Researchers observed that the neural activity patterns in the Australian fat-tailed dunnart, a marsupial species, resemble those in the human brain during gestation.

          A Striking Difference Between Neurons of Humans and Other Mammals

          Human neurons have fewer ion channels compared to other animals. The reduced number of ion channels may have allowed the human brain to divert energy to other neural processes, researchers say.
