Activity summary

Brevican also known as BEHAB is a prominent extracellular matrix proteoglycan. This molecule with a molecular weight of approximately 145 kDa mainly expresses in the central nervous system. It is found especially in the brain and contributes significantly to neural network organization. Brevican is a major component of perineuronal nets specialized structures that surround neurons and support their functions.

Biological function summary

Brevican regulates cell adhesion migration and axonal guidance. As part of a proteoglycan complex it interacts with other matrix components and cell surface receptors to influence cell signaling. Its modular structure allows it to bind with various molecules which can modulate extracellular matrix composition and neuronal connectivity. This regulation is vital for maintaining synaptic plasticity and brain tissue integrity.

Pathways

Brevican plays an important role in neural development and plasticity. It participates in the extracellular matrix pathway that modulates neuronal-circuit dynamics. This pathway involves interactions with molecules like versican and neurocan which are integral to synaptic stabilization and remodeling. Brevican's interactions within these pathways help coordinate extracellular and intracellular processes that underlie neural network adaptations.

Associated diseases and disorders

Brevican has strong associations with brain tumors and neurodegenerative diseases. Research indicates its altered expression in gliomas where it may influence tumor growth and cell invasion. Changes in brevican levels also link to Alzheimer's disease where it might affect amyloid plaque formation. In these conditions brevican's interactions with proteins such as tenascin-R and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans could impact disease progression and cellular responses.
