Neurodevelopmental parameters of tree shrew were analyzed in this study. All other parameters were obtained from the literature (Table 1). VZ, ventricular zone; SVZ, subventricular zone; iSVZ, inner SVZ; oSVZ, outer SVZ; DL, deep-layer; UL, upper-layer. For details, see section “Materials and Methods.”
