Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 533, Issue 7, July 2025.
This study reveals that the loss of MeCP2 in Rett syndrome model mice disrupts prefrontal connectivity. Although early environmental enrichment helps mitigate behavioral deficits and restores hippocampal BDNF levels, it fails to reverse the altered prefrontal connectivity or prevent the prefrontal‐specific decline in BDNF.
