P2X purinergic receptors are required for correct cortical development in human brain organoids - PubMed
The human neocortex represents a crucial evolutionary advance, the formation of which requires the tight and precise orchestration of both intracellular and extracellular signals. Structures grown in three-dimensional cultures, specifically human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hIPSCs)-derived cereb …
