Pyramidal cell development: postnatal spinogenesis, dendritic growth, axon growth, and electrophysiology.

Here we review recent findings related to postnatal spinogenesis, dendritic and axon growth, pruning and electrophysiology of neocortical pyramidal cells in the developing primate brain. Pyramidal cells in sensory, association and executive cortex grow dendrites, spines and axons at different rates,...
