Depletion of neurocan in the prefrontal cortex impairs temporal order recognition, cognitive flexibility and perisomatic GABAergic innervation
2023-04-18
Abstract excerpt
The condensed form of neural extracellular matrix (ECM), perineuronal nets (PNNs), is predominantly associated with parvalbumin-expressing (PV+) interneurons in the cortex and hippocampus. PNNs are enriched in several lecticans, including neurocan (Ncan). A polymorphism in the human Ncan gene has been associated with alterations in hippocampus-dependent memory function, variation of prefrontal cortex structure, a...
