Persistent cortical plasticity by upregulation of chondroitin 6-sulfation
Abstract
Cortical plasticity is most evident during a critical period in early life, but the mechanisms that restrict plasticity after the critical period are poorly understood. We found that a developmental increase in the 4-sulfation/6-sulfation (4S/6S) ratio of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs), which are components of the brain extracellular matrix, leads to the termination of the critical period for ocular dominance plasticity in the mouse visual cortex. Condensation of CSPGs into perineuronal nets that enwrapped synaptic contacts on parvalbumin-expressing interneurons was prevented by cell-autonomous overexpression of chondroitin 6-sulfation, which maintains a low 4S/6S ratio. Furthermore, the increase in the 4S/6S ratio was required for the accumulation of Otx2, a homeoprotein that activates the development of parvalbumin-expressing interneurons, and for functional maturation of the electrophysiological properties of these cells. Our results indicate that the critical period for cortical plasticity is regulated by the 4S/6S ratio of CSPGs, which determines the maturation of parvalbumin-expressing interneurons.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
