- W3100233675 abstract "Abstract It is generally assumed that human intelligence relies on efficient processing by neurons in our brain. Behavioral and brain-imaging studies robustly show that higher intelligence associates with faster reaction times and thicker gray matter in temporal and frontal cortical areas. However, no direct evidence exists that links individual neuron activity and structure to human intelligence. Since a large part of cortical grey matter consists of dendrites, these structures likely determine cortical architecture. In addition, dendrites strongly affect functional properties of neurons, including action potential speed. Thereby, dendritic size and action potential firing may constitute variation in cortical thickness, processing speed, and ultimately IQ. To investigate this, we took advantage of brain tissue available from neurosurgery and recorded from pyramidal neurons in the medial temporal cortex, an area showing high association between cortical thickness, cortical activity and intelligence. Next, we reconstructed full dendritic structures of recorded neurons and combined these with brain-imaging data and IQ scores from the same subjects. We find that high IQ scores and large temporal cortical thickness associate with larger, more complex dendrites of human pyramidal neurons. We show in silico that larger dendrites enable pyramidal neurons to track activity of synaptic inputs with higher temporal precision, due to fast action potential initiation. Finally, we find that human pyramidal neurons of individuals with higher IQ scores sustain faster action potentials during repeated firing. These findings provide first evidence that human intelligence is associated with neuronal complexity, action potential speed and efficient information transfer in cortical neurons." @default.
