Abstract
The primate prefrontal cortex (PFC) undergoes protracted postnatal development, crucial for the emergence of cognitive control and executive function. Central to this maturation are inhibitory interneurons (INs), particularly parvalbumin-expressing (PV+) and somatostatin-expressing (SST+) subtypes, which regulate cortical circuit timing and plasticity. While rodent models have provided foundational insights into IN development, the trajectory of postmigratory maturation in primates remains largely uncharted. In this study, we characterized the expression of PV, SST, the chloride transporter KCC2, and the ion channels Kv3.1b and Nav1.1 across six PFC regions (areas 8aD, 8aV, 9, 46, 11 and 47L) in the postnatal marmoset. We report a prolonged maturation of PV+ INs into adolescence, accompanied by progressive upregulation of ion channels that support high-frequency firing. In contrast, SST+ INs show a postnatal decline in density, diverging from rodent developmental patterns. These findings reveal distinct, cell type-specific maturation dynamics in the primate PFC and offer a developmental framework for understanding how inhibitory circuit refinement may underlie vulnerability to neurodevelopmental disorders.
期刊介绍：
Development’s scope covers all aspects of plant and animal development, including stem cell biology and regeneration. The single most important criterion for acceptance in Development is scientific excellence. Research papers (articles and reports) should therefore pose and test a significant hypothesis or address a significant question, and should provide novel perspectives that advance our understanding of development. We also encourage submission of papers that use computational methods or mathematical models to obtain significant new insights into developmental biology topics. Manuscripts that are descriptive in nature will be considered only when they lay important groundwork for a field and/or provide novel resources for understanding developmental processes of broad interest to the community.
Development includes a Techniques and Resources section for the publication of new methods, datasets, and other types of resources. Papers describing new techniques should include a proof-of-principle demonstration that the technique is valuable to the developmental biology community; they need not include in-depth follow-up analysis. The technique must be described in sufficient detail to be easily replicated by other investigators. Development will also consider protocol-type papers of exceptional interest to the community. We welcome submission of Resource papers, for example those reporting new databases, systems-level datasets, or genetic resources of major value to the developmental biology community. For all papers, the data or resource described must be made available to the community with minimal restrictions upon publication.
To aid navigability, Development has dedicated sections of the journal to stem cells & regeneration and to human development. The criteria for acceptance into these sections is identical to those outlined above. Authors and editors are encouraged to nominate appropriate manuscripts for inclusion in one of these sections.
