... spatial information is represented in the rat brain," notes Lubenov. "It was believed that the firing of hippocampal neurons encodes the physical location of the rat in its environment—in other words, ...
... made a three-dimensional reconstruction of individual dendritic branches of mammalian hippocampal neurons with all their synapses. They found that the synapses get progressively smaller, or weaker, ...
... about signal transmission between neurons comes from studying special cortical or hippocampal neurons, but many vital functions, such as balance and breathing, are controlled by neurons in the brain ...
... that moves new receptors to the synapse so that the neuron (nerve cell) can respond more strongly helps to ... the myosin Vb (five-b) molecule in hippocampal neurons responded to a flow of calcium ions ...
Nitric oxide gets neurons together. And it seems to do it backward. Work by Nikonenko et al. ... et al. overexpressed PSD-95 in cultured hippocampal neurons and found that the cells' dendritic spines grew ...
... a number of neuron pairs that had precisely the kind of synchronous relationship they were looking for--one in which a hippocampal neuron's firing was followed within milliseconds by the firing of a ...
... repetitive experiences would activate CA3 neurons similarly, this is the first study to actually show ... activation of a gene called "Arc" within hippocampal neurons. Past studies have shown that turning ...
... a portion of medial temporal lobe called the hippocampus. Earlier research had found that hippocampal neurons are involved in associative learning, such as matching names with faces.
To investigate ...
... , electrophysiological recordings from the hippocampus show that within seconds to minutes, many hippocampal neurons come to fire when — and only when — the animal passes a specific place. This means ...
... Research – found that lithium treatment protects cultured hippocampal neurons from radiation-induced cell death and ... Ph.D., Xia and colleagues examined DNA repair in lithium-treated mouse hippocampal ...
... in hindered migration of dentate gyrus granule cells to their proper location in the brain. "Improper migration of hippocampal neurons may result in altered connectivity in the brain," says Morris.
... to moderate vitamin C deficiency have 30 per cent less hippocampal neurones and markedly worse spatial memory than guinea pigs given a normal diet. Like guinea pigs, human ...
... next examined whether oleocanthal affected the ability of ADDLs to bind to synapses of cultured hippocampal neurons. The hippocampus, a part of the brain intimately involved in learning and memory, ...
... the hippocampus. Normally, as contextual or relational memories are formed, hippocampal neurons receive norepinephrine from neurons in another part of the brain, the locus coeruleus. The researchers ...
