Extracellular matrix inhibits structural and functional plasticity of dendritic spines in the adult visual cortex
2013
Neuronal connectivity in the mature brain is stabilized by the extracellular matrix. This study shows that degradation of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans in the matrix increases connectivity in the adult cortex by causing a large increase in motility and functional plasticity of dendritic spines.
