Parvalbumin interneuron vulnerability and brain disorders
Open accessAbstract
Parvalbumin-expressing interneurons (PV-INs) are highly vulnerable to stressors and have been implicated in many neuro-psychiatric diseases such as schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease, autism spectrum disorder, and bipolar disorder. We examined the literature about the current knowledge of the physiological properties of PV-INs and gathered results from diverse research areas to provide insight into their vulnerability to stressors. Among the factors that confer heightened vulnerability are the substantial energy requirements, a strong excitatory drive, and a unique developmental trajectory. Understanding these stressors and elaborating on their impact on PV-IN health is a step toward developing therapies to protect these neurons in various disease states and to retain critical brain functions.

In the paper
“Mouse models relevant for both disorders, including the disrupted in schizophrenia 1 gene (Disc1) [57][58][59][60][61], or brain derived neurotrophic factor (Bdnf) [62], show abnormal PV-IN function ranging from migration deficits to reduction in IN number.”

The Results sections on embryonic tangential position, adult cortical PV-interneuron distribution, and mPFC cell numbers report migration-related abnormalities and fewer PV-positive interneurons in Disc1-L100P mice. The paper describes this model as relevant to schizophrenia and refers generally to other mental disorders, but does not establish its relevance to bipolar disorder. Bdnf has a separate citation in the citing sentence and is not attributed to this source. (LLM, conf=0.83)

The Results section (‘Effects of BDNF genotype on parvalbumin levels’; page unavailable) reports reduced cortical PV immunoreactivity in BDNF-deficient mice, supporting an abnormality associated with PV interneurons. It measures protein expression, not interneuron number or migration, and the paper frames the model as relevant to schizophrenia rather than establishing relevance to bipolar disorder. The Disc1 models are attached to other citations in the sentence. (LLM, conf=0.88)

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.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-07, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-07 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
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.
