Deciphering the Role of Aggrecan in Parvalbumin Interneurons: Unexpected Outcomes from a Conditional ACAN Knockout That Eliminates WFA+ Perineuronal Nets

2024-03-20

Abstract excerpt

The transition from juvenile to adult is accompanied by the maturation of inhibitory parvalbumin-positive (PV+) neurons and reduced plasticity. This transition involves the formation of perineuronal nets (PNNs), a dense configuration of the extracellular matrix that predominantly envelops parvalbumin-positive (PV+) neurons. Aggrecan, a proteoglycan encoded by the ACAN gene, has been shown to have a key role in the...
