Assessment of Possible Contributions of Hyaluronan and Proteoglycan Binding Link Protein 4 to Differential Perineuronal Net Formation at the Calyx of Held [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
The calyx of Held is a giant nerve terminal mediating high-frequency excitatory input to principal cells of the medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB).

The Chemorepulsive Protein Semaphorin 3A and Perineuronal Net-Mediated Plasticity

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2016
During postnatal development, closure of critical periods coincides with the appearance of extracellular matrix structures, called perineuronal nets (PNN), around various neuronal populations throughout the brain.

Effect of Shock-Induced Cavitation Bubble Collapse on the damage in the Simulated Perineuronal Net of the Brain

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The purpose of this study is to conduct modeling and simulation to understand the effect of shock-induced mechanical loading, in the form of cavitation bubble collapse, on damage to the brain’s perineuronal nets (PNNs).

Postnatal development of the microstructure of cortical GABAergic synapses and perineuronal nets requires sensory input [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The brain synaptic circuitry is formed as a result of pre-defined genetic programs and sensory experience during postnatal development. Perineuronal nets ensheath synaptic boutons and control several crucial features of the synapse physiology.

Circadian Rhythms of Perineuronal Net Composition. [PDF]

open access: yeseNeuro, 2020
Abstract Perineuronal nets (PNNs) are extracellular matrix (ECM) structures that envelop neurons and regulate synaptic functions. Long thought to be stable structures, PNNs have been recently shown to respond dynamically during learning, potentially regulating the formation of new synapses. We postulated that PNNs

The extracellular matrix and perineuronal nets in memory

open access: yesMolecular Psychiatry, 2022
AbstractAll components of the CNS are surrounded by a diffuse extracellular matrix (ECM) containing chondroitin sulphate proteoglycans (CSPGs), heparan sulphate proteoglycans (HSPGs), hyaluronan, various glycoproteins including tenascins and thrombospondin, and many other molecules that are secreted into the ECM and bind to ECM components. In addition,

Beta3Gn-T7 Is a Keratan Sulfate β1,3 N-Acetylglucosaminyltransferase in the Adult Brain

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2022
Keratan sulfate (KS) glycan is covalently attached to a core protein of proteoglycans. KS is abundant in neuropils and presents densely in close proximity to the perineuronal region of the perineuronal net-positive neurons in the adult brain under ...

Shock-Induced Damage Mechanism of Perineuronal Nets [PDF]

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
The perineuronal net (PNN) region of the brain’s extracellular matrix (ECM) surrounds the neural networks within the brain tissue. The PNN is a protective net-like structure regulating neuronal activity such as neurotransmission, charge balance, and action potential generation.

Parvalbumin interneuron alterations in stress-related mood disorders: A systematic review

open access: yesNeurobiology of Stress, 2021
Stress-related psychiatric disorders including depression involve complex cellular and molecular changes in the brain, and GABAergic signaling dysfunction is increasingly implicated in the etiology of mood disorders.
