Cool new #PNN paper: PNNs regulate excitatory input on PV+ cells (in NAc at least):

The Perineuronal Net Protein Brevican Acts in Nucleus Accumbens Parvalbumin-expressing Interneurons of Adult Mice to Regulate Excitatory Synaptic Inputs and Motivated Behaviors

Interesting perineuronal net (#PNNs) and #extracellular_matrix labelling strategy - knock in a fluorescent protein into the linker protein. Super promising for anyone looking into #parvalbumin #GABAergic neuronal anatomy.

Perineuronal nets and the neuronal extracellular matrix can be imaged by genetically encoded labeling of HAPLN1 in vitro and in vivo

Happy #FluorescenceFriday! Here are #Parvalbumin (red) & #Calbindin (green)-expressing neurons in mouse #hippocampus and #entorhinalcortex. Great image by our technician, Eva Rothenberg (working with Dr. Gustavo Rodriguez). #cellsignal #Swant 🔬🧠

What modulates the output of #cortical #parvalbumin-positive #neurons in the mature #brain?

Kai-Wen He and colleagues reveal rhythmic time- and sleep-dependent regulation via #synaptic M1 #acetylcholine receptors in the mouse primary visual cortex
