MTX chemotherapy led to a decrease in excitatory neurons but an increase in inhibitory neurons, altering the excitatory-inhibitory balance of neural networks and thus mediate cognitive dysfunction. It enhanced the Nrg1-Erbb4 pathway while attenuating the Nrxn3-Lrrtm4 pathway, destabilizing trans-synaptic signaling and causing abnormalities in excitatory and inhibitory synaptic functions.
Countstar Connection
Countstar Mira FL generated nuclei-count measurements for isolated nuclei before single-cell analysis for the study's single-cell analysis.
