+ first postnatal stage analyzed & expression detected. ↑ increase; ↓ decrease; ↔ no change in expression compared to previous timepoint; * indicates increase or decrease in expression compared to previous timepoint that were statistically significant; empty cells: no data available. W: Week S: Stage; S1: neonate in humans, 0 month in rhesus monkeys; S2: infant in humans, 1 month in rhesus monkeys; S3: toddler in humans, 2 months in rhesus monkeys; S4: school age in humans, 8 months in rhesus monkeys; S5: adolescent in humans, 12 months in rhesus monkeys; S6: young adult in humans, 36 months in rhesus monkeys; S7: adult in humans, 60 months in rhesus monkeys.
