Visual cortex development in the ferret. I. Genesis and migration of visual cortical neurons
CA Jackson, JD Peduzzi and TL Hickey
Department of Physiological Optics, School of Optometry, Medical Center, University of Alabama, Birmingham 35294.
The production of ferret visual cortical neurons was studied using 3H-
thymidine autoradiography. The genesis of cortical neurons begins on or
slightly before embryonic day 20 (E20) of the 41 d gestational period,
continues postnatally until 2 weeks after birth (P14), and follows an
inside-out radial gradient with neurons for the deeper cortical layers
being generated before those for the superficial layers. Layer I neurons
are generated both early (E20-E30) and late (P1-P14) in the period of
cortical neurogenesis and, thus, provide at least a partial exception to
the inside-out gradient of cortical neurogenesis. Tangential gradients of
cortical neurogenesis extend across areas 17 and 18 in both the
anterior-to-posterior and lateral-to-medial directions. Neither of these
gradients bears a meaningful relationship to the cortical representation of
the visual field. Most infragranular and granular layer neurons are
generated prenatally, while most supragranular layer neurons are produced
postnatally. Neurons destined for a given layer are produced over a period
of several days, and the neurons generated on any given day contribute to
the formation of 2 or more cortical layers. In general, prenatally
generated neurons complete their migration in 1 week or less, while most
postnatally generated neurons require approximately 2 weeks to complete
their migration.
