Multi-scale measurement of stiffness in the developing ferret brain

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Cortical folding is an important process during brain development, and aberrant folding is linked to disorders such as autism and schizophrenia. Changes in cell numbers, size, and morphology have been proposed to exert forces that control the folding ...

The Extracellular Matrix in the Evolution of Cortical Development and Folding [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
The evolution of the mammalian cerebral cortex leading to humans involved a remarkable sophistication of developmental mechanisms. Specific adaptations of progenitor cell proliferation and neuronal migration mechanisms have been proposed to play major roles in this evolution of neocortical development.

Cortical Folding Patterns and Predicting Cytoarchitecture [PDF]

open access: yesCerebral Cortex, 2007
The human cerebral cortex is made up of a mosaic of structural areas, frequently referred to as Brodmann areas (BAs). Despite the widespread use of cortical folding patterns to perform ad hoc estimations of the locations of the BAs, little is understood regarding 1) how variable the position of a given BA is with respect to the folds, 2) whether the ...

Genetic Influence on Gyral Peaks

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2023
Genetic mechanisms have been hypothesized to be a major determinant in the formation of cortical folding. Although there is an increasing number of studies examining the heritability of cortical folding, most of them focus on sulcal pits rather than ...

Shaping the brain: The emergence of cortical structure and folding

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2023
The cerebral cortex-the brain's covering and largest region-has increased in size and complexity in humans and supports higher cognitive functions such as language and abstract thinking. There is a growing understanding of the human cerebral cortex, including the diversity and number of cell types that it contains, as well as of the developmental ...

Investigation of biomechanisms of cerebral cortical folding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Understanding the biomechanisms by which the cerebral cortex folds is a fundamental problem in neuroscience. The search for biomechanisms involved in cortical folding has been motivated by a desire to understand the folding patterns unique to each human ...

On cortical folds and neuromagnetic fields

open access: yesElectroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1991
A folded cortical source of neuromagnetic fields, similar in configuration to the visual cortex, was simulated. Cortical activity was modelled by different distributions of independent current dipoles. The map of the summed fields of the dipoles of this cruciform model changed, depending upon the statistical distribution of the electrical activity of ...

Cortical thickness, surface area, and folding alterations in male youths with conduct disorder and varying levels of callous–unemotional traits

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2015
Purpose: Previous studies have reported changes in gray matter volume in youths with conduct disorder (CD), although these differences are difficult to interpret as they may have been driven by alterations in cortical thickness, surface area (SA), or ...
