Human-specific paralogs of SRGAP2 induce neotenic features of microglia structural and functional maturation

Abstract: SUMMARYMicroglia play key roles in shaping synaptic connectivity during neural circuits development. Whether microglia display human-specific features of structural and functional maturation is currently unknown. We show that the ancestral geneSRGAP2Aand its human-specific (HS) paralogsSRGAP2B/Care not only expressed in cortical neurons but are the only HS gene duplications expressed in human microglia. Here, using combination of xenotransplantation of human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived microg… Show more
