Control of Neuronal Migration and Aggregation by Reelin Signaling in the Developing Cerebral Cortex

The mammalian cerebral neocortex has a well-organized laminar structure, achieved by the highly coordinated control of neuronal migration. During cortical development, excitatory neurons born near the lateral ventricle migrate radially to reach their final positions to form the cortical plate. Durin...
