Parvalbumin-expressing (PV+) interneurons play a key role in the maturation and synchronization of cortical circuitry and alterations in these inhibitory neurons, especially in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), have been found in different psychiatric disorders. The formation of perineuronal nets (PNNs) around many of these interneurons at the end of the critical periods reduces their plasticity and sets their connectivity. Consequently, the presence of PNNs must have an important impact on the synaptic input and the physiology of PV+ cells. In the present study, we have found that in adult male mice, prefrontocortical PV+ cells surrounded by PNNs show higher density of perisomatic excitatory and inhibitory puncta, longer axonal initial segments (AISs), and higher PV expression when compared with PV+ cells lacking PNNs. In order to better understand the impact of PNNs on the connectivity and physiology of PV+ interneurons in the mPFC, we have digested enzymatically these structures and have found a decrease in the density of inhibitory puncta on their perisomatic region but not on the PV+ perisomatic puncta on pyramidal neurons. Moreover, extracellular recordings show that the digestion of PNNs induces a decrease in γ activity, an oscillation dependent on PV+ cells, in the mPFC of anesthetized mice. Our results suggest that the presence of PNNs enwrapping PV+ cells regulates their inhibitory input and has a potent influence on their activity. These results may be relevant for psychiatric research, given the alterations in PNNs, PV+ interneurons and their physiology described in different mental disorders. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Parvalbumin-expressing (PV+) interneurons are surrounded by specializations of the extracellular matrix, the perineuronal nets (PNNs). PNNs regulate the development and plasticity of PV+ cells and, consequently, their presence must influence their synaptic input and physiology. We have found, in the adult prefrontal cortex (PFC), substantial differences in the structure and connectivity of PV+ interneurons depending on the presence of PNNs. The depletion of PNNs from the PFC has also a potent effect on the connectivity of PV+ cells and on neural oscillations that depend on these cells. These findings are relevant to understand the role of PNNs in the adult brain and in certain psychiatric disorders in which alterations in PNNs and PV+ interneurons have been described.
