Expression of Neural Proteoglycans Correlates with the Acquisition of Mature Neuronal Properties in the Mammalian Brain
Abstract
The neurons in the mature mammalian central nervous system (CNS) are an enormously diverse group of cells. The acquisition of mature, differentiated neuronal properties takes place over an extended developmental period, through a number of different mechanisms. Some of the very last events in neuronal development occur late in the postnatal period, when the mature set of synapses between neurons and their targets is selected and the adult anatomical and physiological properties of neurons are acquired. Experiments in many different systems have shown that the mature set of synapses is selected from an initial set by selective stabilization of some synapses and elimination of others (for review, see Purves and Lichtman 1985). The process of synapse selection is governed, at least in part, by neuronal activity. Temporal matching of pre-and postsynaptic activity is thought to be critical in determining whether a synapse will be retained or lost. Environmental stimuli (such...

“…CSPGs that were previously diffusely distributed are incorporated into specialized structures of condensed and stable matrix around the somata and dendrites of neurons, known as perineuronal nets (PNNs) (Hockfield et al.,1990; Schweizer et al., 1993; Pizzorusso et al., 2002; Galtrey et al., 2008).”

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.
