How does PGC-1α loss in PV+ interneurons contribute to circuit dysfunction in neuropsychiatric disorders?

OPEN

While the study shows PGC-1α controls PV+ interneuron maturation and these cells regulate cortical function, the link to disease pathophysiology remains unexplored. PV+ interneuron dysfunction is implicated in schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorders. Gap type: open_question Source paper: A postnatal molecular switch drives activity-dependent maturation of parvalbumin interneurons. (2025, Cell, PMID:40669459)
