| Research Abstract |
The neocortex comprises several neuronal subtypes and neural glial cells. Differentiation of these cells is regulated by various factors during corticogenesis. In this study, to confirm the mechanism of corticogenesis controlled by the morphogen Hedgehog (HH) signaling, we established conditional knockout (cKO) mice in which the expression of Smo, an HH-signaling mediator, was inhibited in the dorsal telencephalon during development. HH signaling coordinates neurogenesis and cell cycle kinetics via its regulation of cyclin D2 expression. In Smo cKO mice, layer 6b exhibited hypoplasticity with decreased dopaminergic neuronal projections in the prefrontal cortex. These findings suggest that the histologic anomalies in the developing neocortex induced neuronal network abnormalities.
