  • ↵F1-a  Each number represents a separate chimera. R, Right hemisphere; L, left hemisphere.

  • ↵F1-b  Interneuron percentages are based on direct counts versus estimates for pyramidal and granule cell populations. Only chimeras with the lowest-percentage chimerism of interneuron populations were counted.

  • ↵* indicates not counted.
