    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Developmental Biology
    • Genetics

    Background:

    • Neuronal migration is a fundamental process in central nervous system (CNS) development.
    • Significant knowledge exists from rodent and monkey models, as well as human studies.
    • Genetic, chromosomal, and environmental factors influencing human neuronal migration are identified, but mechanisms remain unclear.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To integrate fundamental knowledge of neuronal migration with human disorders.
    • To bridge the gap between basic science and the clinical presentation of migration defects.
    • To provide a comprehensive overview of human conditions affecting neuronal migration.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review and synthesis of existing research.
    • Integration of data from animal models and human studies.
    • Analysis of known genetic, chromosomal, and environmental causes of human disorders.

    Main Results:

    • Detailed understanding of neuronal migration in various species.
    • Identification of distinct morphological patterns in human migration disorders.
    • Recognition of numerous genetic and environmental factors contributing to these disorders.

    Conclusions:

    • Neuronal migration is essential for CNS formation.
    • While causes of human migration disorders are known, underlying pathological mechanisms require further investigation.
    • This review consolidates current knowledge, paving the way for future research into these complex conditions.
