Fetal sulcation and gyrification in common marmosets ( Callithrix jacchus ) obtained by ex vivo magnetic resonance imaging

Highlights • The present study characterized fetal sulcation patterns and gyrification in common marmosets. • Fetal sulcation began to indent the lateral fissure and hippocampal sulcus in gestational week 12. • Fetal sulcation pattern in the marmoset cerebrum was comparable with other higher-order p...

Description
Summary:Highlights • The present study characterized fetal sulcation patterns and gyrification in common marmosets. • Fetal sulcation began to indent the lateral fissure and hippocampal sulcus in gestational week 12. • Fetal sulcation pattern in the marmoset cerebrum was comparable with other higher-order primates. • The degree of gyrificaiton was closely correlated with the cortical volume during fetal periods. • Differential expansion of the oSVZ may be involved in gyral convolution and sulcal infolding.
