α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors regulate radial glia fate in the developing human cortex

Abstract Prenatal nicotine exposure impairs fetal cortical grey matter volume, but the precise cellular mechanisms remain poorly understood. This study elucidates the role of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) in progenitor cells and radial glia (RG) during human cortical development. We ide...
