Precocious deposition of perineuronal nets on Parvalbumin inhibitory neurons transplanted into adult visual cortex

Abstract The end of the critical period for primary visual cortex (V1) coincides with the deposition of perineuronal nets (PNN) onto Parvalbumin (PV) inhibitory neurons. Recently, we found that transplantation of embryonic inhibitory neurons into adult V1 reinstates a new critical period. Here we us...
