The critical role of extracellular matrix in Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 21, Issue S1, December 2025.
Abstract Background In central nervous system, all components are enveloped by the extracellular matrix (ECM), regulating microenvironmental homeostasis and neuronal development. The condensed cartilage‐like ECM called perineuronal nets (PNNs), mainly surrounding parvalbumin‐expressing (PV+) fast‐firing GABAergic interneurons, are crucial to synaptic ...

Modification of tenascin-R expression following unilateral labyrinthectomy in rats indicates its possible role in neural plasticity of the vestibular neural circuit

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2015
We have previously found that unilateral labyrinthectomy is accompanied by modification of hyaluronan and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan staining in the lateral vestibular nucleus of rats and the time course of subsequent reorganization of ...

Perturbed synaptic adhesion molecules signaling in neurodevelopmental disorders: The impact of metal neurotoxicity

open access: yesIbrain, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 403-421, Winter 2025.
Synaptic adhesion molecules (SAM) are essential for the formation, maturation, function, plasticity, and assembly of synaptic connections, all critical for normal neurodevelopment. Excessive exposure to neurotoxic metals during development could disrupt the developing brain and potentially lead to neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs).

Interneuron Development Is Disrupted in Preterm Brains With Diffuse White Matter Injury: Observations in Mouse and Human

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Preterm brain injury, occurring in approximately 30% of infants born <32 weeks gestational age, is associated with an increased risk of neurodevelopmental disorders, such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ...

Spatiotemporal dynamics of the postnatal developing primate brain transcriptome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Developmental changes in the temporal and spatial regulation of gene expression drive the emergence of normal mature brain function, while disruptions in these processes underlie many neurodevelopmental abnormalities.

Intervertebral Disc Proteoglycans: Multifunctional Tissue Stabilizing and Instructional Cell Regulatory Proteins That Control Tissue Homeostasis

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Matrix and cell‐associated proteoglycans are important tissue‐stabilizing, weight‐bearing, and tension‐resisting proteins in the intervertebral disc. Their glycosaminoglycan components have growth factor binding and cell‐instructive properties that allow cells to regulate tissue composition and function.

Semaphorin3A, associated with perineuronal nets, regulates the development of the maturation of the central vestibular circuitry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Poster Presentation - Theme 5: NeuroscienceDuring the formative period of neural circuits, perineuronal nets (PN) are established to restrict plasticity of the circuit.

Postnatal lethality and chondrodysplasia in mice lacking both chondroitin sulfate N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-1 and -2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chain. In cartilage, CS plays important roles as the main component of the extracellular matrix (ECM), existing as side chains of the major cartilage proteoglycan, aggrecan.
