Understanding the organization of the cerebral cortex remains a central focus of neuroscience. Cortical maps have relied almost exclusively on the examination of postmortem tissue to construct structural, architectonic maps. These maps have invariably distinguished between areas with fewer discernable layers, which have a less complex overall pattern of lamination and lack an internal granular layer, and those with more complex laminar architecture. The former includes several agranular limbic areas, and the latter includes the homotypical and granular areas of association and sensory cortex. Here, we relate these traditional maps to developmental data from noninvasive neuroimaging. Changes in cortical thickness were determined in vivo from 764 neuroanatomic magnetic resonance images acquired longitudinally from 375 typically developing children and young adults. We find differing levels of complexity of cortical growth across the cerebrum, which align closely with established architectonic maps. Cortical regions with simple laminar architecture, including most limbic areas, predominantly show simpler growth trajectories. These areas have clearly identified homologues in all mammalian brains and thus likely evolved in early mammals. In contrast, polysensory and high-order association areas of cortex, the most complex areas in terms of their laminar architecture, also have the most complex developmental trajectories. Some of these areas are unique to, or dramatically expanded in primates, lending an evolutionary significance to the findings. Furthermore, by mapping a key characteristic of these development trajectories (the age of attaining peak cortical thickness) we document the dynamic, heterochronous maturation of the cerebral cortex through time lapse sequences (“movies”).

Most maps of human cerebral cortex have partitioned it according to histological features, such as the distribution of cell bodies or myelin, and, more recently, molecular markers (von Economo and Koskinas, 1925; Ongur .Удаалаш., 2003; Zilles et al., 2004). Comparisons of similar classifications among several species provide an evolutionary perspective, and such analyses have identified two broad cortical types. One type, allocortex, has a primitive three-layered form that strongly resembles its homologues in reptiles. Another type, isocortex, lacks such homologues and has a more derived structure characterized by more than three layers (typically six) and a more complex pattern of afferent and efferent projections (Kaas, 1987; Puelles, 2001; Allman et al., 2002; Striedter, 2005). Between allocortex and isocortex, areas sometimes called “transition cortex” have intermediate properties. Using structural neuroimaging of the бододо, developing brain, we explored the possibility that these different kinds of cortex show differing levels of complexity in the trajectories of their growth in childhood and adolescence.

Using computational neuroanatomy, we defined cortical thickness at over 40,000 points throughout the cerebrum in a cohort of 375 healthy children and adolescents. Cortical thickness was chosen as a metric which both captures the columnar architecture of the cortex and is sensitive to developmental change in typically developing and clinical populations (Lerch et al., 2005; O’Donnell et al., 2005; Makris et al., 2006; Шоу ж.б.., 2006a,b; Лк .Удаалаш., 2007; Sowell .Удаалаш., 2007).

Most of the children in our cohort had repeated neuroanatomic imaging, and such longitudinal data can be combined with cross-sectional data to model developmental change, with the longitudinal data being particularly informative. For cortical thickness, the simplest trajectory that can be fitted to describe its change over time is a straight line. More complex growth models include distinct phases of increase and decrease in cortical thickness: a quadratic model has two such phases (typically an initial increase which reaches a peak before declining) and a cubic model has three. The complexity of growth may vary across the cerebral cortex, and we sought to explore whether this variation aligned with cytoarchitectural properties.

Derived properties of developmental curves, such as the age of reaching various points of inflection, are frequently used as developmental indices (Tanner .Удаалаш., 1976; Jolicoeur et al., 1988). For cortical thickness, the age at which peak cortical thickness is reached (the point where increase gives way to decrease in cortical thickness) can be determined for cortical points with either a cubic or quadratic (but not linear) trajectory and, thus, emerges as a potentially useful index of cortical development. We therefore additionally examined the pattern of attaining peak cortical thickness across the cerebrum, to confirm and expand previous observations of a heterochronous sequence, with primary sensory areas attaining peak cortical thickness before polymodal, high-order association areas (Gogtay .Удаалаш., 2004).

Three hundred and seventy-five children and adolescents, healthy children with no personal or family history of psychiatric or neurological disorders, had a total of 764 magnetic resonance images. Each subject completed the Childhood Behavior Checklist as a screening tool and then underwent a structured diagnostic interview by a child psychiatrist to rule out any psychiatric or neurological diagnoses (Giedd .Удаалаш., 1996). Handedness was determined using the PANESS (Physical and Neurological Examination for Soft Signs), and 336 (90%) were predominately right-handed, 20 (5%) predominately left-handed, and 19 (5%) ambidextrous. The mean intelligence quotient (IQ) was 115 (SD, 13) as determined from age appropriate versions of the Wechsler Intelligence Scales (Шоу ж.б.., 2006b). Socioeconomic status (SES) was determined from the Hollingshead Scales and the mean score was 40 (SD, 19) (Hollingshead, 1975). The age range spanned from 3.5 to 33 years, and the age distribution of scans is illustrated in Figure 1. The subjects came from 292 different families; 196 (52%) were male. The age range spanned from 3.5 to 33 years. All subjects had at least one scan (mean age at initial scan, 12.3 years; SD, 5.3); 203 (54.1%) had at least two scans (mean age, 13.8; SD, 4.6); 106 (28.3%) had at least three scans (mean, 15.3; SD, 4.2); and 57 (15.2%) had four or more scans (mean 18, SD 4.5).

Neuroimaging.

T1-weighted images with contiguous 1.5 mm axial slices and 2.0 mm coronal slices were obtained using three-dimensional spoiled gradient recalled echo in the steady state on a 1.5-T General Electric (Milwaukee, WI) Signa scanner. Imaging parameters were as follows: echo time, 5 ms; repetition time, 24 ms; flip angle, 45°; acquisition matrix, 256 × 192; number of excitations, 1; and field of view, 24 cm. Head placement was standardized as described previously (Giedd .Удаалаш., 1999). The same scanner was used throughout the study. The native MRI scans were registered into standardized stereotaxic space using a linear transformation and corrected for nonuniformity artifacts (Sled et al., 1998). The registered and corrected volumes were segmented into white matter, gray matter, CSF, and background using an advanced neural net classifier (Zijdenbos et al., 2002). A surface deformation algorithm was applied which first fits the white matter surface, then expands outward to find the gray matter-CSF intersection defining a known relationship between each vertex of the white matter surface and its gray matter surface counterpart; cortical thickness is defined as the distance between these linked vertices (and measured at 40,962 such vertices) (MacDonald .Удаалаш., 2000). A 30-mm-bandwidth blurring kernel was applied; this size was chosen on the basis of population simulations which that this bandwidth maximized statistical power while minimizing false positives (Lerch and Evans, 2005). This kernel allows anatomical localization, as 30 mm blurring along the surface using a diffusion smoothing operator preserves cortical topologic features and represents considerably less cortex than the equivalent volumetric Gaussian blurring kernel.

The validity of this automated measure against expert manual neuroanatomical estimation of cortical thickness has been demonstrated previously for selected cortical regions in an adult population (Kabani et al., 2001) We repeated this validation study in our pediatric population in the cortical regions included in the original study (the pre and post central gyri, the superior frontal gyrus, the superior temporal gyrus, the cuneus, the superior parietal lobule and supramarginal gyrus) (Kabani et al., 2001). We also examined regions of particular interest for this study. These were the insula, the orbitofrontal cortex (measured bilaterally in its anterior, posterior, medial, and lateral divisions), and medial cortical regions (the anterior and posterior cingulate, the medial dorsal prefrontal cortex, and the parahippocampal gyrus). Twenty scans were chosen at random from the cohort (from ages 6 through 15). For each brain region the neuroanatomist (N.K.) used image analyses software (MacDonald, 1996) to mark one point or tag on the CSF and gray matter border which represents the outer surface of the cortex, and another point of the gray and white matter border which represents the inner surface of the cortex. The distance between the two tags was calculated, mimicking the algorithm used by the automated tool. For a given tag placed by the neuroanatomist on the outer cortical surface, the closest vertex on the automatically extracted cortical surface was identified and its associated cortical thickness was noted. The output of the manual and automatic methods were compared using a repeated measures ANOVA followed by paired t tests to identify regional differences. There was a significant difference for type of measurement with the automated estimates being larger (mean, 4.62; SE, 0.06) than the manual (mean, 4.41; SE, 0.04; F(1,684) = 8.8, p = 0.02). There was a significant interaction of the type of measurement and region (F(35,684) = 2.59, p < 0.001) which was further explored. Overall there was no significant difference between the manual and automated measures in 30 of the 36 regions, with poorer performance noted bilaterally in the precentral gyrus, and in the left postcentral gyrus, and in the middle frontal gyrus, gyrus rectus and the cuneus in the left hemisphere. Notably, only one of these regions lay in an area of particular interest for this study (the left gyrus rectus). There was no correlation between age and the difference between the automated and manual estimates (r = 0.02, p = 0.53). Thus, there was no evidence that the differences between the two metrics had any significant age related bias.

To determine developmental trajectories at each cortical point, mixed model regression analysis was chosen as it permits the inclusion of multiple measurements per person, missing data, and irregular intervals between measurements, thereby increasing statistical power (Pinheiro and Bates, 2000). Our classification of developmental trajectories was based on a step-down model selection procedure: at each cortical point we modeled cortical thickness using a mixed-effects polynomial regression model, testing for cubic, quadratic and linear age effects. If the cubic age effect was not significant at p < 0.05, it was removed and we stepped down to the quadratic model and so on. In this way, we were able to classify the development of each cortical point as being best explained by a cubic, quadratic, or linear function of age. We consider cubic models to be more complex than quadratic, which in turn are held to be more complex than linear models. A random effect for each individual was nested within a random effect for each family, thus accounting for both within-person and within-family dependence. Thus, for cortical points with a cubic model, the kth cortical thickness of the ith individual in the jth family was modeled as thicknessIJK = intercept + dij + β1(age) + β2*(age)**2 + β3*(age)**3 + eIJKкайда dij are nested random effects modeling within-person and within family dependence, the intercept and β terms are fixed effects, and eIJK represents the residual error. Quadratic models lacked the cubic age term, and linear models the cubic and quadratic age terms. The analyses were repeated entering SES and IQ as covariates.

The age at which peak cortical thickness was attained was calculated for cubic and quadratic models from the first order derivatives of the fitted curves.

натыйжалары

Throughout most of the lateral frontal, lateral temporal, parietal and occipital isocortex, developmental trajectories are cubic, with a period of initial childhood increase, followed by adolescent decline and then stabilization of cortical thickness in adulthood (Анжир. 2). Growth characterized by increase and decrease, but lacking the phase of stabilization within the first three decades of life (a quadratic model) is present in much of the insula and anterior cingulate cortex. A linear trajectory is seen in the posterior orbitofrontal and frontal operculum, portions of the piriform cortex, the medial temporal cortex, subgenual cingulate areas, and medial occipitotemporal cortex. Graphs illustrating individual data points from representative regions with a cubic, quadratic or linear trajectory are shown in Figure 3.

Figure 2.

The graphs show the growth pattern for each of these divisions. In order there are dorsal, right lateral, left medial, left lateral, and right medial views. The corpus callosum is blacked out.

Figure 3. 

Graphs showing raw cortical thickness data in blue, with the fitted trajectory superimposed in pink. а-с, The first three images show in order the mean cortical thickness and trajectory for representative regions: the superior frontal gyri, which have a cubic trajectory (a); the portion of the insula which has a quadratic trajectory, seen in green in Figure 5 (b); the portion of the orbitofrontal cortex which has a linear trajectory, seen in blue in Figure 4 (c).

We examined the complexity of developmental trajectories with respect to cortical regions of differing cytoarchitecturonic types, using histological atlases to assign cytoarchitectonic fields (Ongur .Удаалаш., 2003). This analysis revealed a clear parallel between basic types of cortex and the pattern of cortical development. The orbitofrontal cortex exemplifies the correspondence between cortical types and developmental trajectories (Анжир. 4). In the most anterior part of this region, a cubic trajectory characterizes the homotypical (six-layered) isocortex of the frontal pole and lateral orbitofrontal regions. In contrast, most of the cortex on the posterior orbital surface follows relatively simple quadratic and linear growth trajectories. This region has a lamination pattern typical of transitional cortex: compared with homotypical isocortex it has fewer, less well developed layers and lacks the clear concentration of nonpyramidal cells of layer 4, the internal granular layer (Brockhaus, 1940; Mesulam and Mufson, 1982; Ongur .Удаалаш., 2003). In the most posterior part of this region, linear and quadratic growth characterizes the piriform cortex, a primitive allocortical area that subserves olfaction.

Figure 4.

(2003) to illustrate the overlap between the cytoarchitectonic fields and regional differences in trajectories. C, The trajectory of each of the divisions.

да Figure 4 focuses on the orbitofrontal cortex, the same principles are observed generally, where a transition from isocortex to simpler forms occurs. The results for the medial frontal cortex are similar to those in the orbitofrontal cortex, with cubic growth anteriorly, especially in the homotypical cortex of the medial frontal pole- and linear or quadratic trajectories more posteriorly in regions of dysgranular or agranular architecture (Анжир. 5, top). For the insula (Анжир. 5, bottom), the pattern is much the same. The anterior insula, with its agranular and poorly laminated cortex, has a linear developmental trajectory. Moving posteriorly to the dysgranular and homotypical insula, there is at first a more complex quadratic fit; still more posteriorly, as the cortex becomes increasingly homotypical, the trajectory becomes cubic. Likewise in the temporal lobe, an allocortical component such as the piriform cortex shows a predominately a linear trajectory. In contrast, the lateral temporal isocortex has a cubic trajectory and transition areas such as the entorhinal and perirhinal regions have quadratic and linear trajectories (Анжир. 2). These results are summarized in стол 1. There are some cortical regions where this link between cortical types and developmental trajectories does not hold, most notably in the medial occipitotemporal and the anterior superior temporal areas, both of which are isocortical regions that nonetheless have a linear and quadratic trajectory, respectively. The pattern of results held when SES and IQ were entered as covariates, either separately or together.

Bottom, The right insula shows progressively more complex trajectories moving: the posterior portion has a cubic trajectory (red), the body of the insula has a quadratic fit (green) and the anterior insula has a linear fit (blue). A similar pattern holds for the left insula.

The different orders of trajectories are given with the corresponding cortical regions and the underlying cortical type

We next determined the age at which peak cortical thickness was attained for all points with either a cubic or quadratic trajectory, using the first order derivative of the fitted curve for each point. A peak age cannot be determined for the points with a linear trajectory. The results are presented as a time-lapse dynamic sequence (supplemental Movies 1, 2, available at www.jneurosci.org as supplemental material), “stills” taken from the movies (Анжир. 6), and the estimated age of peak cortical thickness for 56 brain regions (as defined by the ANIMAL segmentation tool).

Figure 6. 

Age of attaining peak cortical thickness across the cerebral cortex. Peak thickness can only be estimated for regions with a cubic or quadratic trajectory and not for regions with linear change (which are indicated with a darker red shade). The changes are illustrated dynamically in supplemental Movies 1 and 2, available at www.jneurosci.org as supplemental material.

To summarize the results, within isocortex, the primary sensory and motor areas generally attain their peak cortical thickness before adjacent secondary areas, and also before other polymodal association areas. In the posterior brain, the first area to reach its peak thickness is the somatic sensory cortex (∼7 years), followed by the occipital poles, containing much of the striate primary visual area (∼7 years on the left, and ∼8 years on the right) and then the remaining parieto-occipital cortex, with polymodal regions (such as the posterior parietal cortex) reaching peak thickness later (∼9–10 years). In the frontal cortex, the primary motor cortex attains peak cortical thickness relatively early (∼9 years), followed by the supplementary motor areas (∼10 years) and most of the frontal pole (∼10 years). High-order cortical areas, such as the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and cingulate cortex, reach peak thickness last (∼10.5 years). In the medial views, the occipital and frontal poles attain peak thickness early, and then a centripetal wave sweeps from these areas, with the medial prefrontal and cingulate cortex attaining peak thickness last. There is also a marked dorsal to ventral progression of development. Detailed results for each brain regions are given in стол 2.

Alignment of cortical types with developmental trajectories

This study demonstrates a tight alignment between developmental trajectories and the cortical types depicted in traditional cytoarchitectonic maps, affording these classic maps a developmental significance. The study both supports and extends previous work (Gogtay .Удаалаш., 2004; Sowell .Удаалаш., 2004; O’Donnell et al., 2005) through the inclusion of a much larger sample size which allowed the detection of higher order effects of age.

Other longitudinal studies of typical development support some of the present findings. For example, the simple linear growth we report in one part of allocortex, the piriform area, has also been found previously for the hippocampus (Gogtay .Удаалаш., 2006). We were unable to measure the hippocampus directly in the present study, but Gogtay and colleagues found that the trajectory of volume change of the allocortical hippocampus was linear. The prominence of isocortical thinning in adolescence is confirmed in studies using other cortical morphometric measures such as gray matter density, demonstrating the complementary nature of these different measures of cortical characteristics (Gogtay .Удаалаш., 2004; Sowell .Удаалаш., 2004).

The model used here applies only to the age range covered and cannot be extrapolated. For example, if the cubic trajectory were extended beyond the age range, it would imply there is an increase in cortical thickness in adulthood (starting around the age of ∼25), which is neither biologically plausible nor supported by existing data in this age range (Sowell .Удаалаш., 2007). Rather, the age at which the phase of cortical thinning stops (the second point of inflection in a cubic curve) is better conceptualized as the points of transition into the essentially stable cortical dimensions of adulthood. Areas with cubic trajectories reach this inflection point faster than those with quadratic curves, and in this sense could be conceptualized as having faster growth.

It is important to consider the possibility of methodological artifact contributing to the results. This could arise, for example, as the cortical surface reconstruction, which is the basis of the automated technique, may be particularly difficult in regions of the allocortex and transitional cortex, and the resulting increase in measurement error might obscure complex (cubic) growth patterns. Several factors make this unlikely. The validity of the cortical thickness measure judged against manual estimates did not vary systematically with type of cortex. The automated cortical thickness estimates in allocortical regions of the orbitofrontal and medial cortex were as valid as the measurements of isocortical regions. Additionally, the algorithm we used and its derivatives can also accurately extract the cortical surfaces of a “phantom” brain, detect simulated thinning of the cortex and capture the neuropathologically established patterns of disease progression (MacDonald .Удаалаш., 2000; Lerch and Evans, 2005; Lerch et al., 2005; Lee .Удаалаш., 2006). Finally, our study benefits from its large sample size and high proportion of prospective data, factors which afforded the detection of linear and curvilinear effects of age on cortical growth which were both statistically and, we argue biologically, significant.

Environmental and genetic effects on growth trajectories

The nature of the cellular events underpinning cortical change in humans has not been established. Some of the earliest aspects of cortical development, such as the emergence and resolution of the subplate as neuroblasts migrate from the neuroepithelium to their mature laminar locations (Kostovic and Rakic, 1990; Kostovic et al., 2002) determine cerebral lamination Utero менен and perinatally, but fall outside the age window we studied. Studies in nonhuman animal suggest that cortical dimensions during critical periods for the development of cognitive functions may reflect experience-dependent molding of the architecture of cortical columns along with dendritic spine and axonal remodeling (Chklovskii et al., 2004; Mataga et al., 2004; Hensch, 2005; Sur and Rubenstein, 2005). Such morphological events may contribute to the childhood phase of increase in cortical thickness, which occurs in regions with either a cubic or quadratic trajectory. The phase of cortical thinning which dominates adolescence might reflect the use-dependent selective elimination of synapses (Huttenlocher жана Dabholkar, 1997) that could refine neural circuits, including those supporting cognitive abilities (Hensch, 2004; Кнудсен, 2004). Events occurring at the interface between white and gray matter, such as the proliferation of myelin into the peripheral cortical neuropil in childhood and adolescence, may also influence cortical thickness (Yakovlev and Lecours, 1967; Sowell .Удаалаш., 2004).

This account of possible cellular events emphasizes the role of experience as one determinant of cortical architecture. Our assessment of the environmental factors was limited to a child’s socioeconomic status and entering this measure as a covariate did not change the pattern of results. It would however be interesting to examine the impact of other key factors, particularly family and school environments on cortical development. Individual differences in intelligence influence cortical thickness and its development (Narr et al., 2006; Шоу ж.б.., 2006b). However, our principal findings held when IQ was entered as a covariate, implying that although intelligence may influence some properties of cortical growth trajectories, such as velocity and the age of attaining peak cortical thickness, it does not impact on the basic link between complexity of cytoarchitecture and complexity of developmental trajectory.

Genetic factors are also important in determining cortical architecture (Томпсон .Удаалаш., 2001; Lenroot .Удаалаш., 2007). Common polymorphisms such as the catechol-O-methyltransferase Val158Met polymorphism, a single nucleotide polymorphism in the regulator of G-protein signaling 4 gene, and a promoter region polymorphism of the serotonin transporter gene (5-HTTLPR) have all been found to have some influence on cortical volume, thickness or complexity (Brown and Hariri, 2006; Meyer-Lindenberg et al., 2006; Zinkstok et al., 2006; Buckholtz .Удаалаш., 2007; Тейлор и др., 2007). Of particular interest are genes that both contribute to both cortical growth and complexity and appear to be under positive selection in primate evolution, particularly in lineages leading to modern humans (Gilbert et al., 2005). These include the ASPM (abnormal spindle-like, microcephaly associated) and MCPH1 (microcephaly, primary autosomal recessive) genes (Evans et al., 2004a,b). It would be interesting to determine whether variation in the regional cortical expression of such genes aligns with both cortical types and developmental trajectory maps.

Functional considerations

Detailed consideration of these developmental patterns and their possible relationship to cognitive development remains for future work, but a few points can be made. For example, the posterior medial orbitofrontal areas have been linked with the limbic system and control of the autonomic nervous system, and they show a linear trajectory. These areas are thought to monitor the outcomes associated with behavior, particularly punishment or reward (Балык, 2004; Kennerley et al., 2006), cognitive functions so fundamental that they are unlikely to undergo prolonged development. In contrast, isocortical regions often support more complex psychological functions, which show clear developmental gradients, characterized by rapid development during critical periods. We can only speculate about a possible relationship between critical periods for human skill development and the developmental trajectories described here. The delineation of critical periods for human skill development is complex, but late childhood is a period of particularly rapid development of executive skills of planning, working memory and cognitive flexibility, an age period which coincides with an increase in cortical thickness in the lateral prefrontal cortex (Chelune and Baer, 1986; Diamond, 2002; Huizinga et al., 2006; Jacobs .Удаалаш., 2007). In contrast, the critical period for certain visual functions (such as letter acuity and global motion detection) has been estimated as ending in middle childhood (∼age 6 or 7) (Lewis and Maurer, 2005) and, likewise, the period of increase in cortical thickness in the visual cortex also ends around this time (approximately ages 7–8). This correlation between the duration of some critical periods with the phase of increase in cortical thickness is certainly not universal. It is necessarily limited by the existence of systems (supported by similar cortical regions) with multiple critical periods, each having a different temporal window, as occurs in certain sensory systems. (Харрисон .Удаалаш., 2005; Levi, 2005; Lewis and Maurer, 2005). This discussion focuses on critical periods and should not be taken as dismissing the important of continued refinement of many cognitive skills during the adolescent phase of cortical thinning (Luna .Удаалаш., 2004; Luciana .Удаалаш., 2005).

The findings reported here support the idea that the organization of the cerebral cortex can be understood in terms of a series of concentric rings, with the isocortex (having a cubic trajectory) at its core, the allocortex (showing predominately linear growth) at the periphery, and the transitional areas (having a mix of quadratic and linear trajectories) in between. The isocortex in this model not only lies at the core of the cerebral cortex in this sense, but also arises later in evolution than the piriform area (lateral allocortex) and hippocampus (medial allocortex), and additional small allocortical areas. Thus, through бододо, neuroanatomic imaging we demonstrate that cortical development mirrors both the cytoarchitecture and history of the cerebral cortex.
