Sonic hedgehog maintains the identity of cortical interneuron progenitors in the ventral telencephalon. Fate determination in the mammalian forebrain, where mature phenotypes are often not achieved until postnatal stages of development, has been an elusive topic of study despite its relevance to neuropsychiatric disease. In the ventral telencephalon, major subgroups of cerebral cortical interneurons originate […]
