Human neurogenesis is altered via glucocorticoid-mediated regulation of<i>ZBTB16</i>expression
Glucocorticoids are important for proper organ maturation and their levels are tightly regulated during development. Here we use human cerebral organoids and mice to study cell-type specific effects of glucocorticoids on neurogenesis. We show that glucocorticoids increase a specific type of basal progenitors (co-expressing PAX6 and EOMES) that has been shown to drive cortical expansion in gyrified species. This effect is mediated via the transcription factorZBTB16and leads to increased production of neurons. A phenome-wide mendelian randomization analysis of an enhancer variant that moderates glucocorticoid-inducedZBTB16levels, reveals causal relationships with higher educational attainment and altered brain structure. The relationship with postnatal cognition is supported by data from a prospective pregnancy cohort. This study provides a novel cellular and molecular pathway for the effects of glucocorticoids on human neurogenesis that relates to lasting postnatal phenotypes..
