Abstract

Prefrontal cortex, adolescents, age development, mediator, synapse. The widespread belief that the maturation of the prefrontal cortex is complete by the age of 25, which may explain the behavioral immaturity of some adolescents, simplifies the complex process of neurodevelopment. However, MRI studies and neurobiological data indicate that neuronal differentiation, synaptic remodeling, and myelination continue until the age of 30 and beyond. This emphasizes the need to revise the established ideas about the “critical age” of brain maturation. The purpose of this work was a literature review of researches devoted to the study of age-related brain development, in particular the prefrontal cort
