Sampling the Mouse Hippocampal Dentate Gyrus
Sampling is a critical step in procedures that generate quantitative morphological data in the neurosciences. Samples need to be representative to allow statistical evaluations, and samples need to deliver a precision that makes statistical evaluations not only possible but also meaningful. Sampling generated variability should, e.g., not be able to hide significant group differences from stati...
متن کاملDissection of Hippocampal Dentate Gyrus from Adult Mouse
The hippocampus is one of the most widely studied areas in the brain because of its important functional role in memory processing and learning, its remarkable neuronal cell plasticity, and its involvement in epilepsy, neurodegenerative diseases, and psychiatric disorders. The hippocampus is composed of distinct regions; the dentate gyrus, which comprises mainly granule neurons, and Ammon's hor...
متن کاملDecreased Myelinated Fibers in the Hippocampal Dentate Gyrus of the Tg2576 Mouse Model of Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common cause of dementia in the elderly, is characterized by deficits in cognition and memory. Although amyloid-β (Aβ) accumulation is known to be the earliest pathological event that triggers subsequent neurodegeneration, how Aβ accumulation causes behavioral deficits remains incompletely understood. In this study, using the Morris water maze test, ELISA and ...
متن کاملLongevity of synaptic depression in the hippocampal dentate gyrus.
This study used urethane-anesthetized rats to investigate the longevity of heterosynaptically evoked depression of the monosynaptic response generated by synapses between entorhinal cortical (EC) afferents and the cells of the dentate gyrus (DG). Brief, high-frequency activation of the converging ipsilateral EC-DG input depressed the synaptic response of the contralateral EC-DG synapses without...
متن کاملTNFα Controls Glutamatergic Gliotransmission in the Hippocampal Dentate Gyrus
VIDEO ABSTRACT Glutamatergic gliotransmission provides a stimulatory input to excitatory synapses in the hippocampal dentate gyrus. Here, we show that tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα) critically controls this process. With constitutive TNFα present, activation of astrocyte P2Y1 receptors induces localized [Ca(2+)](i) elevations followed by glutamate release and presynaptic NMDA receptor-depen...
