Removing brakes on adult brain plasticity: From molecular to behavioral interventions
Open accessAbstract
Adult brain plasticity, although possible, remains more restricted in scope than during development. Here, we address conditions under which circuit rewiring may be facilitated in the mature brain. At a cellular and molecular level, adult plasticity is actively limited. Some of these “brakes” are structural, such as perineuronal nets or myelin, which inhibit neurite outgrowth. Others are functional, acting directly upon excitatory-inhibitory balance within local circuits. Plasticity in adulthood can be induced either by lifting these brakes through invasive interventions or by exploiting endogenous permissive factors, such as neuromodulators. Using the amblyopic visual system as a model, we discuss genetic, pharmacological, and environmental removal of brakes to enable recovery of vision in adult rodents. Although these mechanisms remain largely uncharted in the human, we consider how they may provide a biological foundation for the remarkable increase in plasticity after action video game play by amblyopic subjects.

The balance between plasticity and stability is tilted toward plasticity early in life, and at maturity it shifts toward greater stability of neural circuits, although restricted plasticity remains.
“The balance between plasticity and stability is tilted towards plasticity early in life -- a time when there are many opportunities for the brain to be sculpted by experiences – ranging from initial sensory experiences to early nutrient exposure/restriction or developmental adversities (70; 71; 72). At maturity, the balance is shifted toward greater stability of neural circuits, although the”

Typical antidepressants may promote a neuroplastic state resembling the highly malleable brain of early development, potentially allowing changes in brain structure and function that are otherwise limited in the adult brain.
“Typical antidepressants may promote a neuroplastic state similar to the highly malleable brain in early development, possibly allowing for changes in brain structure and function that are otherwise limited in the adult brain, which is relatively more stable, as previously reviewed [84-86].”

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.
