Here, we show that cortical PVALB interneurons depend on ATG5 for organelle- and proteostasis, but not long-term survival. Autophagy was also shown to govern synaptic GluR abundance, affecting E/I balance, neurotransmission, and memory 🧠
Autophagy regulates PVALB (parvalbumin) interneuron excitability and memory
Macroautophagy/autophagy was previously shown to play a critical role in the hippocampus for memory formation, with age-related autophagy deficits being further linked to cognitive decline. However...
