Modulation of excitability in CA1 pyramidal neurons via the interplay of entorhinal cortex and CA3 inputs
Hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons receive extrahippocampal and intrahippocampal inputs. The Schaffer collateral (SC) pathway, projecting to the stratum radiatum of the CA1 field, serves as the primary excitatory input to CA1 cells. The temporoammonic pathway (TA), converging at stratum lacunosum moleculare (SLM), appears to be inhibitory. The relative temporal occurrence of the stimuli conveyed...
متن کاملAnatomical and Electrophysiological Clustering of Superficial Medial Entorhinal Cortex Interneurons
Local GABAergic interneurons regulate the activity of spatially-modulated principal cells in the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC), mediating stellate-to-stellate connectivity and possibly enabling grid formation via recurrent inhibitory circuitry. Despite the important role interneurons seem to play in the MEC cortical circuit, the combination of low cell counts and functional diversity has made ...
متن کاملHippocampus-mediated activation of superficial and deep layer neurons in the medial entorhinal cortex of the isolated guinea pig brain.
The entorhinal cortex (EC) is regarded as the structure that regulates information flow to and from the hippocampus. It is commonly assumed that superficial and deep EC neurons project to and receive from the hippocampal formation, respectively. Anatomical evidences suggest that both the hippocampal output and deep EC neurons also project to superficial EC layers. To functionally characterize t...
متن کاملObject and spatial mnemonic interference differentially engage lateral and medial entorhinal cortex in humans.
Recent models of episodic memory propose a division of labor among medial temporal lobe cortices comprising the parahippocampal gyrus. Specifically, perirhinal and lateral entorhinal cortices are thought to comprise an object/item information pathway, whereas parahippocampal and medial entorhinal cortices are thought to comprise a spatial/contextual information pathway. Although several studies...
متن کاملExcitatory Microcircuits within Superficial Layers of the Medial Entorhinal Cortex.
The distinctive firing pattern of grid cells in the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) supports its role in the representation of space. It is widely believed that the hexagonal firing field of grid cells emerges from neural dynamics that depend on the local microcircuitry. However, local networks within the MEC are still not sufficiently characterized. Here, applying up to eight simultaneous whole...
